Over 350 immigration detainees have staged a hunger strike at the two detention centres in Yongah Hill.
The protestors have issued a statement with their concerns, which includes long term detention injustice, visa cancellations, abuse by guards, arbitrary arrest and internal punishment regimes that operate within the detention centres.
Protestors have allegedly been detained in prison cells following their protest, with reports of one detainee who staged a roof protest being taken to the punishment cells and not being seen since.
