Navy's Islamic Twitter account shut down after anti-Islam group complains
A twitter account allegedly belonging to the navy’s most senior Muslim officer has been shut down after it retweeted a post mocking Tony Abbott and backed the Grand Mufti’s controversial response to the Paris terror attacks.
Captain Mona Shindy, the Chief of Navy’s strategic adviser on Islamic affairs, is understood to have run the account @navyislamic until it was deleted shortly before Christmas following at least one complaint.
In September, the social media account retweeted counter-terrorism expert Anne Aly, on the night of the leadership change, The Australian reports.
“Wait. Did our new PM just give a speech and not mention boats, death cult, security, death cult, terrorism, national security and death cult?” the tweet read.
