PLEASE SHARE THIS!!!! Melbourne court rules random police checks not lawful. Magistrate Duncan Reynolds ruled there is no common law power vested in police giving them the unfettered right to stop or detain a person and seek identification details. Magistrates ruling is consistent with DPP v Hamilton, Supreme Court of Victoria 2011: Justice Kaye: It is an ancient principle of the Common Law that a person not under arrest has no obligation to stop for police, or answer their questions. And there is no statute that removes that right.
