A radical Islamic group, which said singing the national anthem was forced assimilation, plans to hold a mass forum in Melbourne.
Hizb ut-Tahrir will stage an event called Innocent Until Proven Muslim, covering issues such as anti-Muslim "terror" laws, stripping passports, airport scrutiny and imposing values.
The controversial group made headlines when spokesman Uthman Badar said making Muslim children sing the anthem was tantamount to forced assimilation.
