She is is lucky she wasn't arrested with drugs in Saudi Arabia...... Young Muslim leader arrested The Daily Telegraph ^ \| December 13, 2006 \| Kara Lawrence & Luke McIlveen news.com.au YOUNG Muslim leader Iktimal Hage-Ali – a handpicked adviser to the Prime Minister – was arrested in a cocaine bust eight days before receiving the NSW Young Australian of the Year award. The Daily Telegraph can reveal Ms Hage-Ali, 22, was one of four people arrested by detectives from the Middle Eastern organised crime squad on November 22 as part of Strike Force Kirban. She was arrested at her Punchbowl home and taken to Bankstown police station, where she was questioned over a cocaine supply ring allegedly operating in Sydney's southwest. The leading member of John Howard's Muslim Community Reference Group was released without charge. Police seized what is believed to be prohibited drugs, cash and ammunition from several of the homes. Ms Hage-Ali's home was not searched, but she had been identified by police as a suspect. The Daily Telegraph first learned of her arrest last week, but Ms Hage-Ali vehemently denied any involvement or links to alleged drug suppliers. "If it is true, why hasn't it come out?" she said. "I am a high-profile person, I have no idea why people would be saying this." The prominent youth leader has worked full-time as a personal assistant in the NSW Attorney-General's department for three months. Ms Hage-Ali claimed last week that she had only been to Bankstown police station on two occasions – once to report a threatening text message after the Cronulla riots and more recently to talk to police about how to relate better to Muslims. She did not return calls yesterday, despite repeated requests to respond to the allegations. (Excerpt) Read more at news.com.au ....
