There are a few things to consider when celebrating Sirul's release from detention in Australia. Firstly Sirul's release has nothing to do with the offences he was charged with and found guilty of in Malaysia.
The High Court's decision is an adminstrative one based on a reasoning by the High Court that the Australian government's failure to process these detainees within a reasonable period of time was unconstitutional and in breach of their Human Rights and therefore unlawful.

The moral of the story is therefore Sirul should stay moral-free.
