"African gang violence" - Home Affairs minister Peter Dutton's usage of these words to describe Melbourne's youth crime has been labeled as political point scoring by members of the city's African community. Is the federal government trying to exploit the ongoing debate about youth violence for political gain? Dr Mahesh Bhandari is a member of the Australian Labor party and in 2016 contested the local council elections in the city of Wyndham. He shared his opinion about this debate with SBS Nepali.
