Libs vow Melbourne CBD ban for extremists

The Victorian Liberal-Nationals coalition say they would ban extremists from the CBD if they form government after November 24.

People who have been radicalised would be banned from areas like the Melbourne CBD and have to wear GPS trackers if the Liberal-Nationals win government.

Opposition Leader Matthew Guy revealed his counter-terror policy on Wednesday, less than a week after Hassan Khalif Shire Ali set a gas bottle-laden ute on fire and went on a stabbing frenzy in Bourke Street, killing restaurateur Sisto Malaspina.

Mr Guy said he would create terrorism restriction orders to be imposed by the courts, train 100 more police in counter terrorism operations, add 50 more staff to the threat assessment centre and counter terrorism command unit and put more police on city streets.
