This document is to help aid the youth in their dealings with police and help them to recognise their rights. LEPRA is included in the document to outline the role and rights of the police in relation to dealing with citizens without imposing on their human rights. 

This Youth Justice document is beneficial as it helps the youth understand the framework of the primary role of the police and their rights, it also gives a break down of terms and their definitions to help the youth comprehend the process. 

The police have liability in terms of exercising their role and to ensure there is no enfringment of human rights and they are held accountable for their actions. If there are such violations made against their rights to exercise their powers, consequences are enforced. ]]> 2017-12-08 01:29:27 UTC https://padlet.com/g_sims/youth/wish/214368429 https://padlet.com/g_sims/youth/wish/214369452 The case of Hage-Ali v New South Wales [2009] nSWdC 266 was decided by Judge Elkaim in the nSW district Court on 14 october 2009. Ms hage-ali was a young woman who was arrested one morning at her home, on suspicion of dealing cocaine. Police arrested her as part of an operation which also involved arresting three other suspected suppliers. after her arrest, Ms hage-ali participated in an interview and was later released without charge. Ms hage-ali sued the police for wrongful arrest. The judge decided that the arrest was unlawful. although the police had reasonable grounds to suspect Ms hage-ali had committed an offence, they did not suspect on reasonable grounds that arrest was necessary for one of the purposes listed in section 99(3) of LEPra. The arresting of cers gave evidence that, as Ms Hage-Ali was part of a group of apparently connected drug suppliers, if she was not arrested at the same time as the others, there was a risk that she could  ee, that evidence could be lost and that offences could continue. however, the judge held that the reasons given by police for arresting Ms hage-ali were based on stereotypes about drug dealers. The police did not consider any factors personal to Ms hage-ali and, therefore, the arrest was unlawful. ]]> 2017-12-08 01:40:35 UTC https://padlet.com/g_sims/youth/wish/214369452
