Australian police might have framed Indian doctor
Britain News.Net Tuesday 19th August, 2008
Lawyers for Indian doctor,Mohamed Haneef, who was arrested in Australia on terrorism charges, which were later dropped, say he has been vindicated in a new enquiry which has criticised the methods of the Australian Federal Police.
In its submission to the inquiry into the handling of the case, the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions says his office was not given enough information by the AFP to correctly decide the strength of the case against Dr Haneef.
The director said one of its staff also felt extreme pressure to assure police they could charge Dr Haneef.
The CDPP now says prosecutors were wrong to advise the AFP that they could charge Dr Haneef, but say their decision was based on assurances that gaps in the evidence would be filled by AFP investigators.
Dr Haneef's lawyer, Rod Hodgson, says it is a serious matter that the AFP failed to observe the rules.

sigh.
I would hardly consider my initial statement about the Australian people being misled to be an “attack”? but then that sort of goes with a persecution complex doesn’t it? Calling someone Comrade as an insult died out when they dismantled the Berlin Wall, it’s as dated as a mullet. Regarding the Haneef frameup, the die was cast BEFORE the present Government took office, it is STILL under investigation and “being looked at” The present Government looks at things... a lot.
“tell us”? plural? listen “Comrade” (God that is so lame.) you and I are probably the only two people reading and commenting, You think we have a readership of thousands? I don’t think so.... I gotta go do something important like give the cat an enema and clip my nails, I’d like to buy you a beer sometime. Cheers, Scaramouche.

Hey, dont you know that there is an ongoing War against terror ,so why slander Americas coalition of the willing and the deputy sherrif hero in this way.
I mean its not as if Howard used torture or any of that stuff did he?
This is a democratic country and howard was re-elected till very recently showing he had the support of the people for these policies.
American military justice freed Hicks too, even after his confession of guilt at Guantonimo bay.
So leave Australia And howard alone!

Who was playing party politics by attacking the liberals here?
“True patriots "
might notice that comrade Rudd now leads Australia in the coalition of the willing in the and salutes bush now. And they might even question why that is so.Rudd simply moved some of the troops around as Iraq was getting unpopular and the war is going so bad for Bush and Nato in Afghanistan.
