AUSTRALIAN CLUB LAWS LEGAL CHALLENGES
Criminal lawyer Bill Potts, who is representing the Finks motorcycle club in a Queensland Supreme Court action, says the Government’s plan for a bikers-only jail could be open to legal challenge.
Mr Potts says the Commissioner for Jails has the power to impose such conditions in some circumstances, but the State Government is taking that provision too far.
“It seems the Government is effectively trying to force perpetual cruel and unusual behavior upon people for no good purpose,” he said.
