An international criminal justice watchdog has released a letter criticising the Australian government for facilitating the detainment of Bahraini refugee Hakeem Al-Araibi.
In the letter, addressed to Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton and dated December 12, Fair Trials accused the Australian Federal Police (AFP) of being aware of Interpol's refugee policy which states that red notices are not allowed against refugees and asylum seekers if the alert was requested by the country where they fear persecution.
