One woman who was returned in the second repatriation, Mariam Raad, faced charges of entering Syria’s al-Raqqa province while it was under the control of the Islamic State. She pleaded guilty, and was discharged conditionally, without a conviction.

If you’re going to let them re-enter Australian society without a conviction, what are you afraid of?

  the lack of laws to convict them?
