redaction

The ICC's charge sheet, which includes several redactions, dates from July but was only made public on Monday.

“At a time when public trust in law enforcement continues to dwindle, further redactions in police misconduct records is not the right move,” she said.

In August, Rayner had written to the Chinese side demanding they "explain the rationale and justification for each of the redactions".

The department began preserving the records thereafter, but has so far released the records with significant redactions.

Still, the federal government took issue with redactions the county made before sending the documents.
