ISIS brides face rare crimes against humanity charges

About the episode

A mother and daughter duo, who returned to Australia from the ISIS caliphate, are facing charges of crimes against humanity in a Melbourne court. The charges are described as extraordinarily rare in modern legal history, with authorities expected to push for them to be upgraded to terror-related offences. The accused will need to prove exceptional circumstances to secure bail, while their trial could be two to three years away due to the complexity of gathering evidence from overseas.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
