Of the two cohorts that have arrived in recent weeks, there are three people currently behind bars. Of those three who are currently behind bars, one is charged with entering a declared area and two are charged with crimes against humanity. No-one should presume that at any point in time the work of the Australian Federal Police in terms of investigating and gathering evidence is over. I would remind those opposite, before we came to office, 45 people who had gone there to fight had self-managed their return.
