Immigration Minister Scott Morrison says new information casts doubt on initial reports that 23-year-old Reza Berati died from injuries he sustained outside the centre. In a statement, Mr Morrison says he is unsure where Mr Berati suffered his fatal injury on Monday night and who was responsible. Mr Morrison says further reports indicate the majority of the unrest, and attempts to restore order, took place within the centre. Greens immigration spokeswoman Senator Sarah Hanson-Young says the Government is in cover-up mode and her party will be pushing for an inquiry.
