The family of deceased Iranian asylum seeker Hamid Kehazaei have enlisted the help of a lawyer to investigate whether they have a case of negligence against the Australian Government.
The family's lawyer indicated that there may have been at least three critical points where other actions could have been taken that may have saved Mr Kehazaei's life.The 24-year-old cut his foot at the Manus Island detention centre about three weeks ago, developed septicaemia as a result and died due to complications late yesterday.
Lawyer Ruth Hudson will be representing the family and believes there are obvious signs of negligence "This wasn't a fatal injury until the Government made it so," she told the ABC's AM program.
