Jihadis who want to return to Australia will go to jail, says Tony Abbott The prime minister says there will be no exceptions for disillusioned jihadi fighters who want to come home
No exceptions will be made for disillusioned jihadi fighters seeking to return to Australia, who will face arrest, prosecution and jail, Tony Abbott has said.
It was revealed on Tuesday that at least one Australian fighting with Islamic State in Syria has approached the government through intermediaries about the prospect of returning to Australia.
But negotiations have stalled. The Australian federal police are concerned the Victorian health worker might pose a threat to the community upon his return.
