Some details of a terrorism charge against Indian doctor Mohamed Haneef presented in the court by the prosecution may have been incorrect, media reports said.

A Brisbane court was told this week that a mobile phone SIM card belonging to Haneef, a Gold Coast based doctor, was found in the Jeep that smashed into Glasgow Airport on June 30.

However, sources in the UK and Australia have told ABC Radio that the SIM card was actually seized by police eight hours later when Haneef's cousin Sabeel Ahmed was arrested in Liverpool.

Ahmed allegedly had two phones with him at the time of his arrest, one of which had Haneef's SIM card.

Police in Britain and Australia would not comment on where the SIM card was seized.

If the latest report is verified officially, it would mean Haneef's SIM card was found with the man charged only with withholding information. This would dissolve Haneef's link to the Glasgow attack, the latest media reports said.

Haneef remains in custody at Wolston Correctional Centre in Brisbane's south-west after failing to post $10,000 bail.
