Police have been accused of "aggressive" behaviour as they made several arrests at a Black Lives Matter protest over black deaths in custody that caused traffic disruptions in Brisbane's city centre.woman was found dead in her cell at the city watch houseAbout 100 demonstrators gathered outside the Magistrates Court, before moving to police headquarters, and on to the watch house.
"There has still been no explanation and police still haven't released video footage from the cell where she was being held," Cr Sri said. The woman had been in the watch house for several days after a court appearance was awaiting transfer to a correctional centre.
Geez, big rally, more than worthy of the new Murdoch inspired ABC coverage. Getting to the point of “NOT our ABC”!
This group of miscreants beliefs are so out of step with Australians. It appears the lady they’re claiming was killed by Police actually died from natural causes, a haemorrhage of a cerebral aneurysm. She was on remand for drug and property offences. Why weren’t they at work?
Where is your retraction or apology ABC? These idiots risked the health of Queensland, got what they deserved, all for naught, as the death was of NATURAL CAUSES
Good work by the police
I’m gonna protest every white person who dies in custody.
'There has still been no explanation and police still haven't released video footage from the cell where she was being held,' Cr Sri said. I thought it would be offensive to show images of a dead indigenous person, does Sri really want police to release footage of a woman dying?
This is all bullshjt
Without warning or negotiation, white people appear...
Where are the dictator Palaszczuk comments?
once again BLM protesters put all our lives at risk and the left wing ABC think its alright. lock them up and remove their jobseeker payments the lowlifes
A protest was a bit premature considering the post mortem exam showed the woman died of natural causes. In the indigenous community there are so many co-morbidities that would not be surprising.
Was there a single indigenous person at that protest? Or are they waiting for it to be properly investigated while these white jerks make people angry towards BLM.
Now is not the time for mass gathering you peanuts.
Break the law and get arrested. That’s how it still works right ?
Not one indigenous person insight.
They knew they shouldn't have been there. Reactionary idiots.
🙄
Died of natural causes. That must have been a real disappointment for the ABC and councillor Siri
Good it’s about time arrests were made.
... not too many people of color doing the protesting ...
It's not a protest if people aren't arrested
Leftist lies matter.
Maybe they should protest Sleeping Beauty.🙄
Non-indigenous people are killed in custody at a higher rate than Indigenous people. Indigenous people need to stop committing crime at such a disproportionate rate. Auspol
Do the terrorists realise it was death by natural causes or nah, that part doesn't matter?
Lock up the scum.
Obviously very sad for her family and friends but she was not murdered by police and deaths in custody are not exclusively indigenous people.
One flies no flag for their cause but it's very evident the para-military police overstepped their authority by enforcing a political order and not the law
You can negotiate being arrested now ?
Why do they need to negotiate with people vandalising police cars and public public property. Also why isn't this fact mentioned in this article. Isn't reporting all the facts a basic requirement of journalism 🧐
