Australian detainee David Hicks was flown back to Australia yesterday on a chartered jet.
He will serve 7 months in an Australian prison and then be freed.
The Australian Government says it will not enforce the ban on Hicks telling his story when his sentence ends in December -- he just won't be allowed to profit from it.
Australia was being mum on the details of the flight, no John Mark Karr moments disclosed of champagne and gourmet food -- but it did leak that the movie he watched was "The Departed."
