⁣⁣⁣On Tuesday, the 25th of May, my father (who is 74 years old) and I decided to visit Savers, a second hand store located in Kilburn South Australia and at the entrance to the store in between both sliding doors we encountered a Covid SAfe check in and a table with a manual check in form being staffed by a team member. We were advised that we must check in and decided to question this requirement in relation to the Privacy Act 1988 Section 94H. Two managers approached us and an unnamed manager told me that what I was referring to on my phone, which was the Privacy act, was just a piece of paper. The second manager told me that they base their requirements on the Covid SAfe FAQ sheet for businesses and that they were calling the police. Two female police officers arrived 10 minutes later.

During the encounter ⁣I (individual filming) was first accused of causing a disturbance, told to leave, then told that I can stay, Later advised I was being warned, then accused of an offense relating to not signing in despite not having entered the store, then told that it doesn’t matter what offense I committed and that I have to provide my details regardless. I agreed to provide my details while still attempting to clarify what offense I had committed, given “three seconds” and subsequently arrested along with my father. According to the bail agreement the charged offenses I allegedly committed was “Disobey EMA Direction / Refuse Name” and my father was charged with, as written on his bail agreement “Dsobey requirement under Emergency Management Act, Refuse name and address”. My father was never directly asked for anything and only spoke a handful of words while being behind me during the entirety of the encounter. According to the South Australia Emergency Management Act 2004 part 5 section 31 (1), “An authorised officer may direct a person who the authorised officer reasonably suspects has committed, is committing or is about to commit an offense against this Act to state the person’s full name and usual place of residence and to produce evidence of the person’s identity.”

Court hearing related to charges has occurred on the 2nd of August at the Adelaide Magistrates Court to which has provided us (Identical to both myself and my father which was not given to neither us or our lawyer prior) with a Facts of Charge sheet outlining the following:

“Charge(s):EM (Emergency Management Act of South Australia 2004) 31 (2) Fail to Give Identity to an authorised officer
