    Doctors, police warn Prime Minister Julia Gillard of asylum time bomb

    ASYLUM seekers languishing in suburbia are a ticking time bomb, doctors and police warn in a letter to Prime Minister Julia Gillard.

    They say they can't deal with problems caused by a lack of welfare and mental health support.

    The letter, sent by South Eastern Melbourne Medicare Local and seen by the Herald Sun, says gang violence, street brawls and drug and alcohol problems are taking hold in Melbourne's southeast and Ms Gillard must urgently direct health resources to the area.

    One mentally troubled man even set himself on fire.
