Exactly Kezza.
Unfortunately, it appears I have been proven correct. Even more unfortunately the cowboy is one of our pollies

Iran in 2000, wanted him extradited for violent and fraudulent crimes whilst his asylum application was pending in Australia. Australia decided not to send him back because, well, we didn't have any extradition legislation to do so. However, we could have sent him back based on the evidence from Iran Police (I would have thought these are the type of asylum seekers we don't want, especially when a red flag is waved in our face). Once he was granted asylum in 2001, he became our problem, we all know how that panned out.

His wife is a piece of work as well
That might have something to do with - the enemy of your enemy could be your friend ? Theory ? Like, if it was the US, UK or Turkey that wanted the guy, we would have sent him back in the first plane !
I don't think the Australian government ever has too much political tide with Iran anyway!
"we didn't have any extradition legislation to do so"
No, but if immigrants from war affected countries are given a probationary period, before they earn citizenship, then they can be deported
This man was wanted for fraud charges in Iran - the Iranian government notified the Australian government about this issue
This guy was facing sexual assault charges within 6 years of his arrival into the country, from 2002 (court due to proceed in 2015)
During this time he was impersonating a religious leader/sheik (which is a huge issue in itself)
In addition, was was awaiting court proceedings regarding allegations of accessory to murder
Most of these nutjobs give consistent indications they are unfit to remain in Australia within the first few years of arrival
We just need to keep our eyes open
If there is no extradition treaty with Iran, Australia could not have sent him back there.
He could have been denied refugee status but obviously those who make these decisions thought otherwise. Maybe the Iranian charges lacked substance?
I read that they are having trouble finding a moslem funeral plarlour to bury him. A moslem leader said he should be "dumped out at sea, or down a shithouse."
He wasn't a real cleric either ...
