Pilot caught with Porn in ADL

A Malaysian Airlines pilot arriving in Adelaide was found to have child sex videos on his laptop computer.


A Malaysia Airlines pilot who was caught importing child pornography to Australia yesterday has faced court.

When Ahmad Said, 25, arrived at Adelaide Airport yesterday he said he did not have anything to declare.

But customs officers searched his laptop and found child sex videos.

A handcuffed Said has faced court.

Magistrate Simon Smart told him the videos were cruel and violent and it was a disgrace that the married father of two had brought the material to Australia.

The magistrate said people like Said encouraged the market for child pornography.

Said, whose wife is expecting their third child, was fined $6,000.

He left court with a jumper over his head because of television camera crews

The answer is simple all you have to do is put him in the slammer for a month or so.

The other inmates will show their feelings towards anyone who is found guilty of child sex offences.
Let him find out what it is like to experience an unatural act.Then let him go home to his wife and explain his extended stay in australia.

I think it is right though that this might have been the result of a tip off as my lap top has never been looked at apart from the x ray at security.

IMHO, this could be a tip off by one of his peers. Boredom in long haul flights will always make one to pull out his laptop and start fiddling in whats available in it.

Maybe not his colleague ( his captain) on that particular flight but maybe on another leg of long haul. Pornography is a definite no no but child porno is an absolute shame!

Let this be a lesson to all,not just in OZ but to all of us

PS

Noip,

Thanks for the link, will use it to encrypt my personal data.

I refuse to believe this good Muslim with a wife and three lids would have had any porn on his laptop. They don't believe in that stuff. Just ask President Iminadinnerjacket of Iran.

You're right Spaz ... it is obviously a case of misjustice that they have accused hundreds of those 'white folks' in the past, of all denominations. But you could highlight this to the authorities and have these pure souls released immediately.

Again well said and thanks for pointing out the downfall of this 'good Muslim'.

No .. I'm not Muslim. But I did wonder when this thread would degenerate to a racial slur.

jeez - a $6 grand fine and the bugger (pardon the pun) can still fly in and out of Australia.......hope Grant Bowler was shooting the next ep of Border security at ADL and has a close up of the bastard's face.

Seriously, for his laptop to be searched it had to be a tip off which means the guy is a serial pervert. With our courts showing they have yet again chosen to grasp more foreskin that foresight, maybe Scurvy Dog & Co need to start a blacklist and sequence him at the back of every inbound queue they can find.....even create one for him.

- if our pollies had any guts they should refuse entry to him next time he lobs into an Australian port.... in fact if a criminal conviction disqualifies one from holding an ASIC .....can we therefore assume the regulators will act?

P*ss him off out of our skies NOW

This should be a lesson. We should all perhaps do something to change the laws in our own countries so people who are guilty with this won't be let off easily. Maybe then it would be a strng deterrent.

Saddening that there are 'smarter' people here who knowingly are teaching these perverts how to hide their collection.

5 Star LCC

I used to work woth this mob, now rebranded 5 Star Airline With LCC Cost.

Guess at the rates they are paying my ex colleagues, they will get all the riff raffs in the system.It used to be a big thing to work for the national airline, but guess at the rates they're paying, it just not attracting the good ones

Don't worry about him coming back to your shores, with the punitive system Malaysia Airlines have to their employees, he's history .....

5 Star Lcc

EY777, at the rates they are paying, I believe most of the riff raffs have left too. Only a few remain behind and this one was caught, so less another one.

Who remembers the 'Special Information' book carried in the cockpit of Ansett aircraft in the 80's?

A risible $6000 fine! We in Australia are too kind in many respects. This bloke should have been put away in an attempt to rehabilitate him and to protect others from his perversions.

I can't help but wonder what would have happened to an Ozmate in the same position in Malaysia!

Since you blokes are so smug, fellow Oz purveyors of such stuff in SEA can expect very very harsh sentences!

MOHDAWANG: nothing smug about it and don't go trying on the racial B.S.

Frankly, I don't care where they come from, or where they're going if they are doing child porn then they are NOT welcome here ......nor should they be welcomed anywhere. If any of the crew that I work with were into this stuff I wouldn't even bother going to the company - I'd call the AFP and then probably consider a reconfig of the laptop on his head.

The best place to put this bloke, or anyone else who thinks child porn is OK, is under the wheels of the tug during their next walk around.

I don't even want low life like this bloke sitting as a pax - unless he's in handcuffs.

The greatest purveyors of child pornography are the " farangs " running around BKK, PNH, SGN, HKT etc. A very small number get caught, probably done in by folks back in their home countries. However thousands slipped through and brought untold misery to the poor in SEA. Watch what you preach; when these farangs get harsh sentences, there will be massive hue and cry over " draconian " laws in SEA. Remember Shapelle Corby and the Bali 9?

I don't think that there will be much outcry when it comes to child pornography. In the case of Shapelle Corby, the outcry was because of the doubt as to her guilt and the Bali 9 was because of the Australian aversion to the death penalty.
