## Resource

A NSW police officer punched Hannah Thomas in the eye during a pro-Palestine protest, an admission now made by the state alongside claims of false imprisonment and battery — with medical costs covered. Thomas, a former Greens candidate, suffered severe eye injuries requiring multiple surgeries. While the state denies malicious prosecution and malfeasance, the officer faces criminal charges in February. Civil proceedings continue, with next court date set for early September.
