Haider recently posted images of himself in military gear on the Internet with an Islamic flag in his hand. The youth was reportedly seen waving a flag of Islamic State (IS) in Australia on a previous occasion.
Australian police officials have confirmed the teenager's passport had been cancelled on security grounds.
Victoria Police Commissioner Ken Lay said the police were wary of the teenager's activities since the last three months, adding that late last week police learned of "behaviours that were causing significant concern".
Lay confirmed police had information the fanatic had been seen waving Islamic State flags at a local shopping centre.
Haider, who was reportedly under probe for threats against the Prime Minister, agreed to meet with two police officers for an "amicable discussion" at a Melbourne police station last night.
