Australia has passed legislation allowing for home curfews and ankle bracelets to be imposed on migrants with criminal convictions. The law was rushed through after a court ruling forced the release of scores of detainees from detention centers. The legislation imposes penalties of up to five years in jail for breaching the monitoring and curfew conditions. Civil rights groups have criticized the law, arguing that it unfairly targets migrants and refugees.
