The BBC has contacted the Australian government for comment.Mr Pether worked in the Middle East for almost a decade before taking on a huge rebuild of the Central Bank of Iraq's Baghdad headquarters in 2015.He was arrested alongside his CME Consulting colleague, Egyptian Khalid Radwan, after the bank accused the men of stealing money from the project.

After being held without charge for almost six months, and then subjected to a speedy trial, the two were each given a five-year jail sentence and a joint fine of $12m (A$18.4m, £8.8m).However, a 2022 report from the UN determined that the case contravened international law, and that Mr Pether and Mr Khalid had been subjected to "abusive and coercive" interrogations.

Iraq's government has previously denied allegations of ill treatment.

In 2023, the International Chamber of Commerce's (ICC) Court of Arbitration ruled that Iraq's central bank was at fault in the dispute with CME, and ordered it to pay $13m to the company.Analyst Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities, a longtime Tesla cheerleader, called it "jaw dropping and a shock to the market",

He said the clash had sparked fear among investors about what it might mean for regulation of the company, which is seeking to expand self-driving and robotics and had hoped for a more relaxed regulatory approach under the Trump administration."This must start to be calmed down," Mr Ives wrote in a note, adding that it "put a fly in the ointment of the Trump regulatory framework going forward".

Musk's foray into government has already proven a wild ride for Tesla investors.Shares had surged last year, on hopes his alliance with Trump would benefit the company.
