An inquest into the death of a young Aboriginal man forcibly restrained by police officers will consider hundreds of statements, including evidence from a pathologist engaged by his family.
Kumanjayi White, 24, died in Alice Springs in May 2025 after two plain-clothes officers held him down in a supermarket, sparking national outrage and rallies calling for an independent investigation.
In May the Northern Territory Director of Public Prosecutions decided not to prosecute the officers, opening the way for NT Coroner Elisabeth Armitage to schedule a four-week inquest from April 5 to 30 in 2027.
