Relationship Poisoned

AMCRAN’s Dr Waleed Kadous spoke to ABC Radio today about the implications that the government’s handling of the Haneef case may have on relations between the Muslim community and the authorities. He also talks about the anxiety that the case is causing within the community:

It’s every Muslim’s fear that this could happen to him.

They can imagine being in the same situation Dr Haneef was in, that, you know, they left a SIM card with a relative before leaving the country and then something happens a year later. They can imagine borrowing money from someone and paying the loan back. These are not unusual things.

And to see him treated in this way, and when Muslims read the record of interview that’s been released… I mean, as a Muslim myself, I read that and thought, you know, “There but for the grace of God go I”.
