Protesters have vowed to return on Jan. 26 after a rally on First Nations deaths in custody was forced to disperse amid restrictions on public assembly.

About 200 people gathered at Hyde Park in central Sydney on Jan. 18, weeks after (New South Wales) NSW Police imposed a declaration that prevents residents from seeking protest authorisation, leaving participants vulnerable to arrest for obstructing traffic or pedestrians, or marching down streets.
