Charges against Haneef dropped

Media release here: http://www.cdpp.gov.au/Media/Releases/20070727-Haneef.pdf (via)

Apparently, the Minister for migration, though having revoked his visa, has sent him into community detention, rather than in conventional immigration detention. This means that he will be deported soon, since he is no longer held under charge. An apology from the Minister would be good, to restore the doctors' name.

Now that Haneef has flown back to India we have the strange case of the minister trying to convince us that his terrorist suspicions are strong enough to cancel a man's visa but not charge him with anything whatsoever and in fact let him leave the country freely (which is what he was trying to do in the first place). Whilst continuing to slander his name by suggesting his desire to see his new-born daughter raises his suspicions even further!
