WA’s Banksia Hill’s shameful treatment of detainees

What is it like for youngsters locked up inside Western Australia’s Banksia Hill detention centre?

Officers have been exposed for using the ‘folding up’ technique to restrain teenagers. The movement is banned in Queensland over fears it could lead to suffocation or death.
