Confessions, Torture, and the Criminal Law
NEW SOUTH WALES, JUL 6 – Police link a 'contract crew' to murder, torture, and attempted murder tied to a Victorian drug syndicate across NSW and Queensland, involving multiple violent incidents in July and August 2024.
- NSW Police are investigating a series of violent incidents, including the kidnapping, torture, and murder of a man in Sydney and an attempted murder in Queensland in July 2024.
- The attacks reportedly spanned six days and are believed linked to internal conflicts within a Victorian drug trafficking syndicate employing a 'contract crew' to carry out the violence.
- Key evidence includes CCTV footage showing the victim, Rich Dylan Choup, being publicly reprimanded and slapped before being taken to a grey Audi SQ2, a box cutter found at a crime scene, and a man shot through the eye found at a Queensland service station.
- An autopsy confirmed Choup was fatally shot and had part of his right ear severed, a torture method aimed at extracting information, while the other victim survived despite being buried alive and shot in the head.
- Police continue searching for those responsible and urge the public to provide information via Crime Stoppers at 1800 333 000 to help identify the suspected 'contract crew' behind these connected crimes.
