(Victoria High Court) Beach J: ‘In a multicultural society, such as we have in this country, it is my opinion that great weight should be given to the cultural and spiritual laws and practices of various cultural groups forming our society, and that great care should be taken to ensure that their laws and practices, assuming they are otherwise lawful, are not disregarded or abused.’
