(Age) Secret jailhouse letters traded between a convicted terrorist and a Melbourne woman accused of recruiting for Islamic State have been read aloud in court as one of the women fights to be released back into the community.
Hadashah Sa’adat Khan, 23, is said to have professed her love for her fellow inmate and discussed dying in the name of Allah before the pair were captured together on CCTV in the prison yard.
Melbourne Magistrates Court heard on Wednesday that prison staff seized the letters late last year from inside the cells of Ms Khan and a fellow inmate known as “Prisoner S,” who is currently serving a lengthy prison sentence for an attack on another person in the name of jihad.
