An incarcerated Indigenous woman in Queensland was shackled to a hospital bed while in labour last weekend, according to an advocacy group. The birth reportedly came days before Labor and the Coalition blocked a bill seeking to ban the 'barbaric practice' of shackling prisoners in hospital, drawing criticism of the state and federal response.
Why now: Reports of the shackling coinciding with parliament's rejection of a ban on the practice have sparked outrage over treatment of incarcerated Indigenous women.
