30.09 - Australia : second raid on home by police investigating leaks to media
Six federal police officers from Canberra searched the home of a resident of Gold Coast, Queensland, on 25 September in an attempt to identify the source of a leak for a report in The Australian daily newspaper about the impact for the public of a cut in the budget of a governmental agency responsible for broadcasting. "What we have here is a report about a budget cut and one that has not been denied," the Australia’s Right to Know media coalition said. "What we get appears to be the intervention of the police simply because the report was embarrassing politically."
