Australia’s Northern Territory is reintroducing a controversial device in its efforts to get tough on crime.
Police Commissioner Michael Murphy says that spit hoods will once again be used to restrain children.
Murphy says that over the last three months 68 police officers were assaulted, with 20 counts of spitting.
Australia Correspondent Donna Demaio told Ryan Bridge that it’s in opposition to the UN Committee against torture recommending last year that Australia take all necessary measures to end their use.
