No more jail - the library's terrible, terrorist insists
2012-04-13
A CONVICTED terrorist serving 14 years for his part in amassing stockpiles of bomb-making chemicals has argued he should not serve a further lengthy jail term for other crimes - because the Goulburn Supermax library is not up to scratch.

Bradley Umar Sariff Baladjam, a bit-part actor who once appeared in Home & Away, told his psychologist he was "suffering at the hands of this regime" at Supermax, where he is classified "AA" high security.

In Downing Centre District Court yesterday, Baladjam complained there were not enough books about maths and Islamic art in the library, and that its opening hours were limited.
Has he considered asking his friends and relations to buy him the desired volumes? Surely they love him enough to spend £60 every two weeks...or perhaps they can find second hand volumes cheap on amazon.com.
He said he liked to study mathematical patterns known as "fractals"in Islamic art but was having to rely on a Year 9 textbook.
Ooooh. He likes to look at the pretty pictures. They needn't buy him expensive textbooks for that -- just do a quick Google search and print out the results. It,s a good mental exercise for him to figure out the mathematics for himself.
His barrister Peter Lange said the Goulburn prison library was not adequate to "exercise the adult mind" of a prisoner left alone for hours and suffering "sensory deprivation".

Baladjam was found guilty in 2008 of four terror offences between July and November, 2005.

He was in court yesterday to be sentenced on gun charges arising from his arrest at Green Valley on November 8, 2005, when he shot at two police officers, grazing one on the hand.

#2  One copy of each Harry Potter book, a King James bible and a holy crayon with all the pages ripped out.

Between holy crayon and Allan's snackbar, I can't stop laughing...
