The inquest into the death in custody of 22-year-old Yamitji woman Ms Dhu recommenced this week. It began in November last year. This week the coroner heard from a number of police witnesses. There were 11 officers in the chain of command from Ms Dhu’s incarceration to her death only a few days later.

Ms Dhu was locked up on a warrant for over $3600 in unpaid fines. Amy McQuire speaks to the Guardian’s Calla Wahlquist, human rights lawyer George Newhouse, and Ms Dhu’s uncle Shaun Harris, to give us an update on the case.
