Media banned from showing faces of alleged RSL vandals

A Melbourne court has ruled to keep the faces of two women charged with graffiti vandalism at two Returned Services League (RSL) clubs from public media for 12 months after their trial. This decision aims to protect the accused's privacy and avoid potential prejudice in the ongoing legal process. The ruling highlights the delicate balance between media freedom and protecting the rights of individuals in criminal cases, underscoring the importance of fair trial procedures. This move could set a precedent for how similar cases are handled in the future.
