Allegations:
Ahmed and her friends and family were asked to leave a Gold Coast bar because her brother was wearing a bandana. As they were leaving, some members of the group told a bouncer that they had been treated unfairly. The exchange turned into an argument and later into a fight between the bouncer and Ahmed's cousin outside the bar. Ahmed began to record the incident on her cellphone and continued recording once police arrived. When police officers saw Ahmed taping the scene, she was approached from behind, thrown onto the hood of a police car and her phone was taken. Ahmed did not realize they were police officers until she was handcuffed. Police then took her to a police station and falsely charged her with battery to a police officer, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct. After she was released, Ahmed got her phone back but the video of the incident was erased. The charges against her were later dismissed.
