The family of Kumanjayi “Little Baby,” who speaks Warlpiri, criticises the legal system over a lack of communication ahead of an alleged murder suspect’s court appearance. According to reports, the family says they are left “in the dark” about what is happening in court and are not properly informed by the court and legal representatives. They also say they miss Jefferson Lewis’s court hearing, which they expected to be able to attend or at least participate in. The family’s criticism focuses on communication and accessibility, including language needs and timely notice, rather than on the substance of the criminal allegations. The reports indicate the family believes the process fails to account for their first language and their ability to understand proceedings. The coverage is based on the family’s statements; no additional details about the specific court actions, reasons for the missed hearing, or any formal response from the court or defence are provided in the supplied material.
