Numan Haider, 18
[From article]
Firebrand preacher Sheikh Ustadh Mohammed Junaid Thorne made the explosive claims on Facebook as he paid tribute to the slain Endeavour Hills teenager.
Haider, 18, had an Islamic flag with him when he was shot dead after stabbing two counter-terrorism police officers.
“We understand that the local authorities had cancelled the passport of this young boy for no reason, keeping him a captive in his own country for no valid purpose,” Sheikh Thorne wrote.
“We also understand that the police visited or raided his house (not clear yet) as he was hanging out with some friends in Hungry Jacks, just hours before his death.”
“The police then requested him (or forced him) to come in for a brief meeting or questioning.”
Sheikh Thorne said Haider’s friends tried to talk him out of visiting the police station, but he said he had nothing to hide or be afraid of.
“Unfortunately, our young brother went alone to meet with these “ambiguous” policemen, the violators of his privacy, and it is still unknown the details of what happened then,” he wrote. “What we are sure of though is that he was murdered in cold blood right in front of a police station, in front of a place that is supposed to be providing security and comfort to our youth.”

He then stabbed a Victoria Police officer twice in the arm.
Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius said the Victorian officer fired a single shot that killed Haider.

Authorities said Haider went to the Endeavour Hills police station where he was to be interviewed on Tuesday night and stabbed two police officers who greeted him in the parking lot.
One of the officers shot and killed Haider and a bomb squad was called to sweep his car.
Haider had been under surveillance by police and intelligence agencies and his passport had been confiscated, Federal Justice Minister Michael Keenan told reporters.
Police initially said the teenager was seen displaying the Islamic State flag and made threats against Prime Minister Tony Abbott.
