Australian senators Hanson and Faruqi's legal battle over Hanson's tweet to Faruqi is reopened to present fresh evidence on its racial motivation.
Australian senators Pauline Hanson and Mehreen Faruqi's legal battle over Hanson's tweet suggesting Faruqi "piss off back to Pakistan" is being reopened to hear fresh evidence. Faruqi's lawyers argue that Hanson knew Faruqi was Muslim at the time of the tweet, and have submitted a 249-page file of evidence to support this claim, including social media posts and news articles identifying Faruqi as Muslim. The case will determine whether Hanson's tweet was racially motivated or a response to Faruqi's political stance.
