Dutton considering entry ban
Immigration Minister Peter Dutton is seeking an urgent briefing on legal options to deny an entry visa to the founder of a radical anti-women group that believes rape should be legal on private property.
A ātribal meetingā, organised by Return of Kings leader Daryush āRooshā Valizadeh, will take place in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth on Saturday along with similar gatherings in 43 other countries.
Mr Dutton is looking at the legal basis to bar his entry into Australia.

āLike all Australians I am offended by the reports that Iāve seen,ā he told reporters in Canberra on Tuesday.
āOnce Iāve got all that information I can make a decision about whether or not a visa can be cancelled.ā
But Mr Valizadeh has threatened to āsneak intoā the country by private boat to Darwin from Indonesia or East Timor.
āIāll find a way to enter. I wonāt be stopped,ā he tweeted.
The opposition and Greens are up in arms over Mr Valizadehās Australian visit.
āIt is disgusting ⦠those views and that type of campaigning and organisation has no place in Australia,ā Opposition Senate leader Penny Wong said.
