The Federal Government has denied claims it put a human rights lawyer on a travel watch list. The Australian lawyer for Julian Assange says she was stopped at Heathrow airport and told she was on a so-called watch list, requiring official approval before she could return home. Jennifer Robinson was told she would need permission from The Australian High Commission in London before she could board her flight. She says a security guard told her it was because she had done something controversial.
