As if being locked up for 11 days without charge was not bad enough, Indian doctor Mohammed Haneef now might be evicted for failing to pay the rent on his Gold Coast residence.
Haneef was detained by the Australian Federal Police on July two in connection with the UK terror plots.
The doctor remains in custody while officers sift through computer records, photos and other information gathered to determine whether he is linked to the failed terrorist attacks in the United Kingdom.
He has not been charged. However, he might soon be evicted from his Southport apartment, The Age said on Friday.
Landlord Callum Spence said he had sought legal advice on whether he could evict Haneef for falling a week behind on rent money.
'My solicitors think there must be some breach of contract but they are waiting to see what happens with police,' Spence told The Gold Coast Bulletin.
He said the eviction plans were not linked to the current investigation.
'I am not going to evict him because of what is happening. I will only do it because I need the rent money,' he said, adding, 'If they (police) cut him loose then he can come back here but I don't think he'll want to stay.'
