Latest unrest has 60 men on hunger strike at Scherger

THE unrest at immigration detention centres has spread to the newest mainland facility, with asylum-seekers starting a hunger strike at Scherger.
The protest began yesterday at the converted Cape York air force base near Weipa in Queensland, with 60 Afghan Hazara men refusing to eat. The flare-up follows two nights of protests at the detention centre on Christmas Island during which asylum-seekers set buildings and mattresses on fire.
