Australian High Commission in Wellington targeted in blood over Manus Island deaths...

Blood, or a symbolic equivalent, was thrown on the Australian High Commission in Wellington decrying the latest death of an asylum seeker on Manus Island.

On Thursday posters were also put up in the Thorndon diplomatic precinct of refugees who have died in the Australian offshore detention centres in Papua New Guinea.

This week, Iranian asylum seeker Hamed Shamshiripour, 31, was the fifth detainee to die on Manus Island.

Al Jazeera reported he was found hanging from a tree near the East Lorengau refugee transit centre on the island on Monday.

The media outlet reported refugees on Manus Island were questioning initial reports that he had committed suicide after injuries were reportedly found on his body. Full story...
