## Resource

Sixteen protesters arrested during a February demonstration against Israeli president Isaac Herzog are pushing for their charges to be dropped, as the NSW Supreme Court recently struck down the unconstitutional laws used to stop their march—laws that now stand null and void. Despite this legal victory, they still face assault and intimidation charges, while police misconduct allegations from the protest—including pepper spraying and shoving demonstrators—remain under investigation. Though some charges have already been dismissed, these activists argue the state’s continued pursuit of justice is unjust and arrogant, especially as new legal declarations still bar the rally. The case highlights the growing tension between protest rights and law enforcement in Australia. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
