Just a litle update for those not to numb
"Lawyers for Guantanamo Bay detainee David Hicks have been granted an urgent hearing in the Federal Court next Friday.
The legal team has launched an action against the Commonwealth, alleging the Federal Government has failed in its duty to protect an Australian citizen abroad.
They argue the Attorney-General and the Foreign Minister could have done more to secure the South Australian's release.
Mr Hicks's Australian lawyer, David McLeod, says the court will now have a chance to review the Government's decision-making process.
"It's been made very clear that one of the major justifications is that David cannot be charged or dealt with in this country and therefore for some reason of bizarre logic, it's okay for another country to deal with him illegally - that is, not in accordance with the Australian Constitution," he said."
