ISIS-linked group will ‘face the full force of the law’ upon return to Australia: Burke | ABC NEWS
The Australian Federal Police has confirmed some “ISIS brides” will be arrested and charged when they arrive in Australia from Syria.
In a statement, Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke said the government will not assist the group of 13, which comprises four women and nine children.
Mr Burke said it was clear the moment the group left the camp that they would be seeking to leave Syria and the government received an alert the moment the airline ticket was booked this morning.
