ASIO officers face grilling
March 17th 2008 09:06
Attorney-General Philip Ruddock said (Age - Tuesday - 'ASIO officers face grilling') the greatest obligation on any government was to ensure the safety and security of the Australian community and intelligence agencies were under a great deal of pressure to provide protection.
After recent bungles of the immigration department and counter terrorism agencies I'm beginning to think that the 'master plan' is nothing more than randomly arresting people.
If it weren’t for the fact that some of these people's lives have been destroyed, the bungles in both the immigration department and counter terrorism agencies would seem almost comical. The fact that agencies that are apparently working overtime to protect our safety and freedom can make so many seemingly ridiculous mistakes is shocking. In particular, the ASIO officers who "kidnapped" Izhar ul-Haque. I assume that an ASIO officer is more experienced than a state Police officer and should, therefore be well versed in the laws regarding illegal imprisonment and how this can affect a court case.
It seems to me that ASIO, either feels that they are above the law and have a free reign over everybody, or are exceedingly under trained and are not fully aware of the legal ramifications of there actions.
Either way we should be very concerned.
