Indigenous groups have protested for two days outside of the Alice Springs police station to demand an investigation into the shooting of 19-year-old Kumanjayi Walker at his family home on Saturday.
Aboriginal organisations in the Northern Territory are calling for an “immediate and exhaustive” investigation into the police shooting death of Mr Walker, a Warlpiri man.
Congress, the central Australian Aboriginal health service, says there were so many unanswered questions around the shooting that the inquest into Mr Walker’s death in the town of Yuendumu should be given priority over all others.
