Not Only Dr. Haneef's Case I believe Dr. Haneef's case of proceeding with criminal charges without sufficient evidence has not been a result of mistake or overreaction. The latest evidence allows a possibility of conspiracy behind this. Yet, it is only one of manifestations of a deep and serious problem. In Queensland, Vincent Berg's and some other cases are not less alarming. It seems that the rule of law based on legal evidence and respect to individual human rights is in danger of being replaced by witch-hunting. This problem must be addressed in principle and not only in Dr. Haneef's case. Every such case should be reviewed against strict and clearly determined criteria of legal evidence sufficiency allowing to proceed with criminal charges. Andreas Berg
