Lawyer for Australian Muslim Advocacy Network argues white supremacist’s tweets caused harm to local Muslims

At a hearing before the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal on Tuesday, lawyers for Aman and X argued whether Queensland authorities had legal jurisdiction to rule on the matter.

Merkel argued the tweets were downloaded in Queensland, had caused harm to local Muslims and that X was provided with all relevant documents constituting the proceeding under the state’s legislation. “X Corp is a true foreign corporation with no presence in Australia. [If Aman is successful], that would give Qcat the widest jurisdiction of any entity in Australia and possibly the world,” Owens said.
