Amazing!

From the India Times BANGALORE: Indian doctor Mohammed Haneef has been at the receiving end of the Australian Federal Police (AFP) treatment for the last 21 days. However on Monday, he chose to bail out the AFP which was facing an embarrassing allegation of tampering his personal diary.

Haneef told his cousin Imran Siddiqui and his lawyers that news reports were false and AFP officers had not done anything like that. The media had reported that the officers wrote the name and contact details of alleged suicide bomber Kafeel Ahmed in Haneef’s diary and later quizzed him during an interview. The incident occurred soon after Haneef was arrested at the Brisbane International Airport on July 2. The reports even said Haneef had replied that it was not his handwriting. “I spoke to him today. He said it was speculation. He told me he himself had written the address of his cousin,” Imran who is in Australia to help Haneef, told TOI.

I just know that the Australian media are currently writing retractions and an apology to Keelty…I just know it! Presuming the report is accurate one might well ask “What else have the media misinterpreted in their rush to make the AFP and Howard look bad?”
