Mischief

The Australian authorities have dropped terror charges against an Indian-born doctor over the failed car bomb attacks in the UK.

Mohamed Haneef had been accused of giving “reckless support” to terrorism by providing a relative in Britain with his mobile phone SIM card.

Director of Public Prosecutions Damian Bugg said, following a review of the case, that “a mistake has been made”.

The Immigration Minister Kevin Andrews will grant Dr Mohamed Haneef a “residential determination” that will allow him to return to his Gold Coast home or another approved residence.

Mr Andrews said he would seek further advice from the Commonwealth Solicitor General in the meantime.

The decision means Dr Haneef will not be detained at an immigration detention centre until Mr Andrews changes his decision.

Mr Andrews originally revoked the visa on character grounds after Dr Haneef was charged. That charge was dropped this afternoon.

Masha Allah. Its a Great News for all Indian Muslims.

But Its sad that we still have a blot of the two cousins brothers Kafeel and Sabeel being Involved in Glassow Bombing.

Its a Lesson for all Indian Muslims, Be alert. The world is not Sympathic to your Religion.

And its the Job of every Educated MUSLIM to take under his wings these illiterates(unfortunate brothers). Sponsor a Brother or Sister in their Education. Dr. Haneef and family could...
