A magistrate has thrown out “inappropriate” bail conditions imposed on a 23-year-old student activist who was the subject of a midnight arrest by police following a protest outside the Reserve Bank in Sydney last month.
In Downing Centre local court on Wednesday, lawyers for Cherish Kuehlmann, a student at the University of NSW charged with a single count of trespass after a 30-person protest in Sydney’s CBD last month, successfully argued for the removal of strict bail conditions preventing her from being within 2km of Sydney’s Town Hall.
