Camp Sovereignty rejects eviction notice
|
Camp Sovereignty today announced (Mon 10 April) that they were planing on defying the Melbourne City Council Notice of eviction.
"The Camp was established as a site operating under Aboriginal Sovereign Traditional Law. We recognise this law as having supreme jurisdictional authority over this land. Until the Melbourne City Council can prove they have consent from Aboriginal people to have jurisdiction over this land, we will continue to operate this site under our law; the superior, spiritual law, the law of this land" said Camp Sovereignty spokesperson Robbie Thorpe today...more The 4pm deadline came and past with signals from the Melbourne City Council they were not going to evict, 200-300 supporters showing up and a last minute legal injuntion challenging the eviction notice. However the situation is still unclear after the Council refused to meet with camp representatives. |
