Decision looming for police bid to block bridge protest

Security fears appeared on a large bridge to prevent a pro -Palestinian protest, and the police said it could be dangerous to a peace judgment.

Queensland police launched legal proceedings on Thursday to stop Brisbane’s march to the story bridge on Sunday as part of a national day of action.

Janelle Brassington, the chief magistrate judge, kept his decision in the afternoon of Thursday.

However, for the Palestinian rally organizers, justice said that they could challenge any court decision and that they could continue the protest to emphasize the human crisis in Gaza.

A maximum of 10,000 people were expected to participate in the Brisbane rally as a part of the country’s day of action, which was invoiced as the largest pro -profile demonstration in the history of Australia.

Marshall Bostock, the senior lawyer of Queensland Police, applied to the Brisbane Magistrates’ Court who wanted to declare the protest unauthorized.

“If there were anti-social behavior on the bridge during the regiment, (Senior Police Leadership) would not have sent police to respond enough.” He said.

Queensland Police Deputy Commissioner Rhys Wildman said there was no inadequate fence to prevent the protesters from climbing the bridge from the road strips of the bridge to an insecure abandoned paths.

For Palestinian Magan-Djin’s lawyer Angus Scott, justice told Mrs. Brassington to prevent public safety fears from walking.

“It is not enough to point out that the discomfort, deterioration or a sports game is in the nearby environment,” he said.

Police and Brisbane rally organizers tried to mediate at the beginning of this week, but they could not make a decision.

Protest Organizer Remah Naji said that they went for a march independent of the decision of the peace judge.

“The continuation of Plan B is planning to walk in front of the story bridge on August 24,” Nine Network said on Thursday. He said.

When asked if the demonstrators are willing to violate the law to protest, Naji said: “We are ready to walk on the story bridge and to increase awareness and to force our government to take action during genocide times.”

“We have an obligation and the only thing we want our government to act according to international law.”

The walk is preparing to reflect a new show on the Sydney Port Bridge, a demonstration of approximately 100,000 people in the Pancho Sea in wet weather.

NSW Premier Chris Minns said in a statement on Thursday that he would consider bringing the legislation to stop the use of the port bridge for protests.

Orum I don’t exclude that, dedi he said.

“The government has to balance the right to protest against the people’s right to enjoy a great city like Sydney.”

The planned Brisbane protest was supported by civil society groups that said that the court action was a loss of money.

“This unprecedented movement weakens the right to peaceful parliament and is a dangerous precedent for democracy in Australia,” said Anastasia Radievska, the Australian democracy network campaignist Anastasia Radievska. He said.

“It is an unacceptable waste of taxpayer’s money to take the community organizers to court when each protest police do not like.”
