(Brisbane Times) An Australian man accused of being an ISIS supporter claimed he received a false Venezuelan passport after someone approached him in a shopping centre five years ago, a Brisbane court has heard.
Ahmed Luqman Talib, 31, from Doncaster East in Melbourne’s north-east, made a second unsuccessful bail application, this time in the Brisbane Supreme Court on Friday.
The father-of-eight was arrested on March 25 and extradited from Victoria after he and Queenslander Gabriel Crazzi, 34, were detained in a counter-terrorism sting.
Mr Talib is charged with one count of preparations for foreign incursions into foreign states for purpose of engaging in hostile activities between October 1, 2012, and September 1, 2013.
