Sri Lankan asylum seekers returned by Australia are generally charged with leaving the country illegally and those found guilty face “rigorous imprisonment”. The sentence for those proved to have left illegally is two years of rigorous imprisonment and a fine?
And why shouldn't they be charged? Do you reckon Australians leaving Australia illegally wouldn't be charged for doing the same? Or any other country whether developed or not?
It's not much wonder Australians are increasingly ill thought of around the world, other nations have had a gutful of being dictated to from a tinpot democracy that can't even balance a budget.
