ASIO evidence 'used in Egypt' |
2005-03-08 |
![]() Mr Habib's lawyer Stephen Hopper told the newspaper several mobile phones and a computer were seized during the ASIO raids in 2001. The paper said Mr Habib's comments will raise more questions about the Australia's involvement in the matter, despite Attorney-General Philip Ruddock repeatedly denying Australian officials knew about Mr Habib's abduction by US intelligence agents. When asked if Australia supplied any information to the Egyptians, Mr Ruddock told Dateline: "I don't believe they did." Mr Habib alleges he was arrested in Pakistan and taken to Egypt where he was tortured between November 2001 and February 2002. ASIO has refused to any answer any questions on the matter. |
