'In 1842 the Crown prosecuted Weewar (q.v.), a Bindjareb Nyungar warrior, for carrying out tribal payback by spearing Dyung of the Mooro group. When Weewar heard that Dyung, a member of the tribe responsible for the death of his son, was moving through Binjareb territory he was governed by one law - traditional Aboriginal law. Weewar's trial became the test case in Western Australia which determined that British Law took precedence over traditional law.' Sourced: Kulbardi Productions (sighted 1/5/2009)
