NEW SOUTH WALES, AUSTRALIA, JUL 17 – Salim Mehajer served nearly four years of a seven-year sentence for domestic violence and fraud, with parole granted despite a medium risk of re-offending, the State Parole Authority said.
- Salim Mehajer walked from John Morony Correctional Centre near Windsor, having served three years and nine months of a seven-year sentence, on Friday.
- The State Parole Authority rated Mehajer’s risk of re-offending as "medium", while the commissioner of corrective services opposed his release citing lack of insight.
- Following his release, a media helicopter tracked Mehajer’s car driving through Sydney as he left in a black Mercedes-Benz without comment.
- He must report to a Community Corrections officer and attend programs, and is banned from contacting his victim or entering the Central Coast.
- An appeal hearing on August 4 will review his domestic violence verdict, as Mehajer will appear before the Court of Criminal Appeal on that date.
