	Interview: Mick Keelty
		MICK KEELTY: Well, certainly I don't want to speak on behalf of the airline operators, but certainly the airlines operators, not only for matters of drugs but also for the security of valuable items that people carry in their luggage, this was an issue that was raised in the Corby matter.
		MICK KEELTY: Well, I'm not saying, I'm not going that far Laurie, but what I'm saying is that if, if people use that as a defence, they've got to understand that they, it needs to be corroborated, and we will follow down every lead to corroborate as best we can, that sort of allegation.
		MICK KEELTY: I'm happy as you can be in the current environment, remembering that, not only focussing on drugs but also on the security environment, this is an issue that we're all aware of.

	Annual Address 2006
		Commissioner Keelty argued that the media's reaction to recent anti-terrorism laws had been characterised by a fear that offences such as sedition will affect the ability of journalists to express their views; and he asserted that reporting on these laws was not always balanced or based on an understanding of the laws.

	'De-programming' same as torture
		Australian Federal Police commissioner Mick Keelty has said Indonesia is using a former Jemaah Islamiah leader, Malaysian-born Nasir bin Abbas, to help in the deprogramming of convicted terrorists.
		Mr Keelty said the idea, which he likened to drug rehabilitation, has been raised at a policy level in Australia during talks about anti-terrorist control orders.
