Convicted leaker Chelsea Manning will be barred from entering Australia for a scheduled speaking tour set to start Sunday, her event organizer said Thursday. The Australian government sent Manning’s team a notice of intention to deny the convicted leaker's entry, said Think Inc. who is organizing the event. The organizers said they gave the government more than 10 letters of support from individuals and organizers who support Manning’s visit to Australia. Last year, she was barred from entering Canada, but was later allowed to appear at another event, Reuters reported. After her trip to Australia, Manning is expected to travel to neighboring New Zealand.
