Terror link probed

A SELF-proclaimed British multi-millionaire named Mohammed Islam who was arrested on the Gold Coast with almost $120,000 in cash is under investigation as to whether he has terrorist connections.

Queensland police yesterday refused to comment on their investigation into the man, 22, but at this stage there is reportedly no evidence to link him with terrorist activity.

Islam allegedly had $118,000 in $50 notes in a suitcase and a mobile phone concealed in his rectum when he was arrested at a Surfers Paradise bus station on Thursday night.

Islam faced Southport Magistrate's Court yesterday charged with possessing tainted property but police prosecutor Sarah Fox said more serious charges could be laid.

Constable Fox said Customs officers in Sydney had found no large sums of money in Islam's luggage when he arrived in the country and he had not declared any.

A check with Interpol revealed Islam had supplied police with a false address in London.

Constable Fox told the court Islam had a criminal history in England relating to fraud, theft, public disorder and drug offences.

I have thought about it hard. I think that this guy was just a rich playboy Muslim out on the town having fun. No terror connections at all! Just a nice guy in the wrong place with a little walking out money. Oh? The cell phone? He is just a little kinky! How dare you question this man's sexuality!
