Somali Australians

Victoria's Somali community is in shock after the arrests of three of its own last month. The three Somali-Australian men have been charged over terror related offenses involving an alleged plan to attack a Sydney army base. Two of the men are also facing additional charges over alleged links to a foreign army -believed to be the Somali militant group al-Shabaab. The government has since proscribed al-Shabaab as a terrorist organisation with links to al- Qa'ida. Insight travels to Victoria to bring the local Somali community together to discuss recent events and to explore the challenges they face growing up in Australia.
