The Justice
for David Dungay Junior campaign held a press conference last
Friday in the Domain-Djarrbarrgalli to announce that criminal
barrister Phillip Boulten SC has issued a detailed advice outlining
that there's potential for charges to be laid in regard to
David Dungay's death in custody.
The prominent barrister is of the opinion that there's
enough evidence available to see manslaughter and/or
assault charges laid against some of the guards involved in the
incident that saw David Dungay killed.
Mr Boulten set out that there was no lawful excuse for the
guards to have stormed the cell Mr Dungay was occupying and to have
applied such force in restraining him.
The barrister further stated that there's a reasonable
chance that if charges are laid, convictions will follow.
