NSW passes 'wanding' knife laws, enabling police to use metal detectors without warrants in specified locations after recent stabbings.
NSW passes new 'wanding' knife laws: Police now have powers to use hand-held metal detectors without warrants in specific locations, such as shopping precincts, sporting venues, and public transport stations.
This follows a spate of high-profile stabbings in Sydney.
Senior police can declare these areas and allow officers to scan people for 12 hours if a relevant offense involving weapons, knives, or violence has occurred in the past 12 months.
Critics argue that these laws may disproportionately impact vulnerable communities and subject them to surveillance or harassment.
