Aussie prosecution to review 'material' in Haneef's case

In the face of reported inconsistencies in the police probe against Mohammed Haneef, Australia's prosecution chief today announced he would review available material relating to the case involving the Indian doctor, accused of recklessly supporting a terror group.

Though Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Damian Buggs referred to matters which have developed as the case has progressed, he did not spell out which aspects he was pointing to in connection with the failed car bombings in Britain.

"Clearly, not every matter which is prosecuted by my office is reviewed by me ...But there are matters which have developed as this case has progressed ...and a broader review of the available material and the proceedings to date is the best way to examine these matters appropriately," he said in a statement.

Haneef was arrested on July 2 and is alleged to have given a mobile phone SIM card to his cousin brother later suspected to be involved in the failed bomb plot in central London and Glasgow airport.
