Reports that asylum seekers in the Manus Island detention centre were told they would not be resettled in PNG are false, Immigration Minister Scott Morrison said.

Asylum seekers have escaped the Manus Island detention centre for the second night in a row following violent clashes overnight.

Immigration Minister Scott Morrison said in a statement on Tuesday morning that the incident was more serious than the violent altercations that occurred the previous night when asylum seekers destroyed fences, tore down light poles and smashed bunk beds after clashes with security guards.
