“I respectfully reject calls for the investigation to be handed to an external body,” [NT acting police commissioner] Dole said in a statement.
Come on, guy. It's what the community has asked for.
I'm surprised it's not something that the coroner would be referred to. Though, I wonder if they're waiting to see what the findings are from the autopsy. From what I had read last they hadn't identified a definitive cause of death.
