Senator Eric Abetz has unequivocally stated that the Australian Government has not made a boat of Tamil asylum seekers disappear, despite a sudden silence in communication from the vessel and the extraordinary and offensive ongoing silence from Immigration Minister Mr Scott Morrison. Torture of Tamils (including returned asylum seekers) by the Sri Lankan Government is well documented. Further, Senator Abetz says that he has every confidence that we will be treating these people and *are* treating these people according to our international obligations and there is one thing every Australian can have confidence in, that our Border Protection people will treat these people with the respect that they deserve under international law.” He is obviously across the detail of what is occurring. These are clear claims that he has to back up. He is on the record. I encourage you to write to Senator Abetz asking for him to show due evidence of the claims his government is indeed treating asylum seekers with the respect they deserve under international law.
