Background
Victims have endured unimaginable suffering, and an inquiry must uncover whether those entrusted with their protection—law enforcement, local councils, authorities, and political leaders—failed in their duties or deliberately suppressed investigations to avoid controversy.
Only a national inquiry can deliver full accountability, justice for survivors, and the systemic reforms needed to ensure such failures are never repeated.
