Melbourne Islamic leader silent on alleged Flydubai hijacker links in video

Samir Mohtadi, leader of Melbourne's MyCentre, released a video citing Islamic texts on silence without addressing UAE prosecutors' allegations linking him to the accused Flydubai hijacker.

This is a developing legal and security matter with potential implications for counterterrorism cooperation between Australia and the UAE.
