An Islamic preacher who has said homosexuals should be put to death has left Australia. British-born Shia cleric Sheik Farrokh Sekaleshfar lectured near Orlando, Florida in April and was being widely quoted in the wake of Sunday’s killing.
He was visiting Australia as a guest of Sydney’s Imam Husain Islamic Centre. Media reports today said that Sheik Sekaleshfar left the country after Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull ordered a review of his visa.
