Australian Jennifer Robinson said she was left stunned after being told by an airline crew that she was on an ‘inhibited person list’ that means she must have ‘done something controversial’. Ms Robinson said that she could not understand why she was on the list as she had never done anything controversial or criminal. She added that under Australian law, a citizen does not need special clearance when returning to their own country.”
