Anyone else keeping up with this?

Absolutely disgraceful the way the Australian government's been treating him...

Concise summary of the case (follow the links from the article above for more info)
- arrested in connection with london/glasgow bombings
- held for 270 hours without trial
- granted bail by magistrate

Okay, that's a normal case up until now. That is, until the government decided to deport Haneef regardless of the result of his criminal case.

That's justice for you...

Now, am I just being a cynic, or could this have some small connection with it being election year?
