A Federal Court judge ruled on Friday against forcing the Australian government to repatriate 31 women and children from Syrian detention camps.
The father of a woman repatriated from a Syrian refugee camp is devastated that a court has rejected a push for women and children held alongside her to be returned. A Federal Court judge ruled on Friday not to force the Australian government to repatriate 11 women and 20 children, after a legal challenge brought by Save the Children .
He has recognised the potential for communities to be concerned about the return of the women, sometimes referred to as "ISIS brides". Mariam travelled to the Middle East with her husband on a family holiday but got trapped when he was convinced to travel to Syria to fight and was killed months later. Dabboussy believes the community at large want this to come to an end.
