(SYDNEY) — Australia’s highest court ruled on Thursday that the country’s policy of sending asylum seekers who try to reach its shores by boat to migrant camps in Papua New Guinea is valid, despite Papua New Guinea’s court ruling the practice unconstitutional. The decision by the High Court of Australia follows a ruling by Papua New Guinea’s Supreme Court last year that found Australia’s detention of asylum seekers on the Pacific nation’s Manus Island was unconstitutional.
