Prem - excellent article but why did you have to bring Haneef into all this? No, he was not condemned first. There was evidence against him - no solid proof, though. IN fact, INDIAN agencies also had evidence against him, all of which was covered up after our PM lost sleep over the terrorist. . Simple points: Why did he give his SIM to his cousins? It IS a crime. Anyone giving his SIM to anyone else, that is to eb used in a terrorist activity since, muslim or hindu, IS GOING TO BE ARRESTED AND TORTURED INTO CONFESSION RIGHT HERE IN INDIA. The Aussies did not do the same. . Also, I heard his interview on radio - why does he have an fake American accent on an Indian radio channel when he studied in Bangalore followed by the UK and then was in Australia??? I would suspect such a chameleon of wrongdoing anytime. Prem, please keep to cricket - don't go ahead and support haneef, or you would be guilty of the same crime ponting is committing.
