Cornelia Rau is a German citizen and Australian permanent resident who was unlawfully detained for a period of ten months in 2004 and 2005 as part of the Australian Government's mandatory detention program. Her detention became the subject of a government inquiry which was later expanded to investigate over 200 other cases of suspected unlawful detention by the Australian government's Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs (DIMIA). She disappeared from Manly Hospital on 17 March 2004, and, in February 2005, it was revealed that she had been unlawfully detained at Brisbane Women's Correctional Centre, a prison, and later at Baxter Detention Centre, after being classified as a suspected illegal immigrant or non-citizen by the Immigration Department when she refused to reveal her true identity.〔Sunday 2005.〕 ==Life in Australia== Rau arrived in Australia from Germany in 1967, aged eighteen months. Her family lived in Australia until 1980, when they returned to Germany. They lived there for two years, then moved to Asia and once again to Australia in 1983, where they remain. Although Rau is still a German citizen, and spoke some German at home, at school and elsewhere, she spoke English.〔Palmer 2005, p. 1.〕 A schoolfriend at Killara High School, Elke Nagy, described Rau as being "an incredibly sweet, kind and loving friend."〔Personal communication.〕 Rau attended an art school and worked in hospitality before taking a job as a flight attendant with Qantas. In April 1998, Rau joined Kenja Communication, a cult, but was apparently expelled from the organisation following a Kenja event in Melbourne. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cornelia Rau」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
