A 30-year-old man, Mohammad Hassan Al Bayati, has been sentenced after taking a three-year-old girl from a playground at a shopping centre in Homebush while working as a security guard.

CCTV showed him leading the child out of view into an area without surveillance, where the offending occurred.
The case went through an appeal and retrial after an earlier conviction was overturned in 2022. He was ultimately found guilty on lesser charges, including detaining a person to gain an advantage and committing an indecent act with a child.

He has now received a four-year prison sentence, with time already served counted toward parole. I hope the boys in the cells are taking good care of him

tragic consequence of war.

“It’s an incident that I know all involved hold deep regret, including myself,” he said.

Last month it was reported a member of a unit commanded by Hastie in Afghanistan had cut off the hands of a dead insurgent to secure his fingerprints.

Hastie has been cleared of any wrongdoing in that incident by the ADF. He has said he was not at the scene when it happened and when he learned of it reported it to his superior officers.

After the Australian reported the second incident on Tuesday, Hastie said in a statement: “Out of respect for the Australians I led overseas I took a position going into this election that I was not going to talk about operational matters … As I have said previously, not everything goes to plan in any aspect of life, let alone in a high-pressure war zone where people are trying to kill you.

🔵 Mr. Hastie was a key witness for Nine Newspapers in the defamation case brought against them by Victoria Cross recipient Ben Roberts Smith.

Sound a lot like "you wont get a welcome to country"

Your not my friend, your wrecking my country, go back to whatever shit-hole you came from.

"Anti-Semitism, proud to be accused, speak up".

AFL Hall of Famer Nicky Winmar’s alleged violent assault left a woman “catatonic” and fearing for her life. The AFL's "poster boy" ABO that supposedly changed opinions on the worth of ABO's. Cant help but see the parallels with O.J.Simpson.

Alarming rate - close the borders bring back the ring of steel 🤣🤣🤣🤣

More Irish immigration!

The government looks more crazy with each passing day.

This is the chick that hijacked/wrecked the last march for Australia. She read an incredibly boring speech off a laptop. Hardly anyone could even understand what she was saying. By the time she was eventually booted of the mic 90% of the crowd was gone feeling deflated. I'm not much of a conspiracy person but somethings not right here. Why is she campaigning for one nation? She's not even an Aussie.
