Aboriginal police officers in the Northern Territory are suing the government over decades of racial discrimination and pay inequality, calling it a last resort after internal complaints failed. They allege systemic racism, offensive treatment, and unequal pay — with one veteran officer having served nearly 30 years without resolution. Their lawyers describe the claims as deeply troubling, demanding compensation and an official apology. The case follows damning findings from a coroner’s inquest and comes despite the police’s own anti-racism strategy. Set for Federal Court later this month, trial is slated for 2027 — with hopes for justice, accountability, and a safer workplace for Indigenous staff.
