Control order restricting what mosques man can attend challenged

Constitutional challenge possible over control order, which also controls the 20-year-old's movements, associations and use of media such as FaceTime

A constitutional challenge could be launched over a control order sought by the Australian federal police, which restricts the movements and associations of a 20-year-old man and what mosques he can attend, a federal court judge has heard.

The order also prohibits the man talking to a 12-year-old boy and other teenagers, and places significant restrictions on his use of electronic communication.
