Indian terror suspect Mohammed Haneef tearfully reunited with a relative in a Brisbane jail today during the first family visit allowed since his arrest three weeks ago in connection with failed bombings in London and Glasgow.

Haneef had been working as a doctor in a public hospital in Queensland state before he was arrested at the international airport at the state capital Brisbane on July 2 as he was about to fly to India.

He was charged two weeks later with supporting a terrorist organisation for giving his mobile phone SIM card to a second cousin in Britain before travelling to Australia.

Imran Siddiqui, a relative of Haneef’s wife, flew from India to make the terror suspect’s first personal visit.
