Subject: RE: BS: Australian Terrorism Cockup
Now it appears that there has been a complaint made to the Queenland organisation that oversees the proprietry of Lawyers that Haneef's lawyer should be disclipined because he was very naughty to release (because it was obviously ONLY to influence public opinion!) the full transcript - something that IS the property of Dr Haneef - and that he CAN instruct his lawyer so to release publicly if he wishes... :-)
The leading Civil Rights Lawyer in Qld has said that not only did he do nothing 'wrong', but taking into account the constant leaking of selected parts of it to the media in a way that was not only misleading but also very publicly damaging to Haneef's reputation, that he had an moral obligation to release the full transcript.
Also unsaid was that since the AFP and the Govt Minister were supposedly the only other people who also had legal access to the documents, the original misleading leaks which the full release was intended to correct, could only have been engineered by THEM - to influence public opinion..... for political purposes ... :-)
