Ibrahim brothers extradited from Dubai to Australia on drugs charges

Fadi and Michael Ibrahim have been extradited from Dubai to Australia, where they face charges of attempting to import two tonnes of MDMA and other drugs into the country. The shipment, allegedly worth almost $1billion, was seized by police in the Netherlands in July as part of an international law-enforcement effort.

Assistant Commissioner of Australia’s police force Neil Gaughan also said that “The Dubai authorities have offered an unprecedented level of support to help facilitate these operations and ensure these extraditions have run smoothly.
