The Public Interest Advocacy Centre (PIAC) and law firm Maurice Blackburn have launched a class action against the State of NSW in the Supreme Court of NSW.

The action, led by Musa Konneh, focuses on the false imprisonment by NSW police of large numbers of young people on the basis of out-of-date bail information. The class action seeks to make the system accountable and correct; it also seeks compensation for those affected.

Any young person arrested by the police for breaching a bail condition who was not on bail at the time of the arrest may be eligible to join the class action.
