A beleaguered AFP Commissioner Mick Keelty denied the Australian newspaper reports that the police had written the names of overseas terror suspects in Haneef's personal diary. The police, the newspaper report alleged, then interrogated Mohamed Haneef about the names asking if he had written the potentially incriminating notes himself.
''Police at no time made any notations or additions to Mr Haneef's diary,'' the AFP chief said in a statement.
''As this matter is currently before the court, it is not appropriate for the AFP to elaborate in greater detail,'' Mick Keelty added.
The diary fiasco is third such discrepancy which has emerged in the Indian doctor’s case in as many days.
The serious Monday allegation came after it was revealed that Haneef's SIM card was not found in the burning Jeep that crashed into the Glasgow airport on June 30.

Commissioner Keelty also denied yesterday that Haneef was under investigation for plotting to bomb a Queeensland landmark high-rise building.
Meanwhile, a leading law body has appealed to the Immigration Minister to issue a Bridging visa to Mohamed Haneef so that he could come out of the solitary confinement and live in the community. Haneef's appeal against the cancellation of his visa is scheduled for a hearing on August 8.
