Australian Federal Police internal review says race did not influence mistaken arrest of First Nations teenager
In short:
Last month, an ombudsman review found Australian Federal Police officers subjected an Indigenous teenager to a "seemingly unlawful" search in a case of mistaken identity.
The watchdog was investigating "serious questions" raised in the aftermath of the teenager's arrest in Canberra's south, after he was pulled from a bus at gunpoint by officers.
An internal AFP investigation into the incident has now cleared the force of discrimination or using excessive force, but did not reveal disciplinary outcomes for the officers involved.
