Our Sudanese refugees pose a question
Another cultural misunderstanding?:
A SUDANESE refugee who embarked on a three-day rape spree and sliced an elderly woman's throat a month after reaching Australia will serve at least the next 17 years in jail. Hakeem Hakeem, 21, was yesterday sentenced to 24 years' jail, with a non-parole period of 17 years, for a string of depraved sexual attacks in Melbourne's southeast in March 2005. The Supreme Court heard that, just one month after arriving in Australia, Hakeem set out on a drug and alcohol-fuelled campaign of terror on the streets of Dandenong.
The implication of this journey [as a refugee"> could make people prone to be violent.
