Whistleblower claims to have witnessed corruption inside TfNSW

Adele Graham claimed on A Current Affair on June 11, 2025, that she witnessed over $110 million in corruption at Transport for NSW in western Sydney.
Graham’s allegations arose after she observed her manager, Ibrahim Helmy, favouring Protection Barriers, a company meant to do $7 million in yearly work, suggesting secret deals.
After she lodged an internal complaint and left her position, anti-corruption authorities conducted searches at the TfNSW facility in Yennora and the Protection Barriers site in Grafton last year, confiscating luxury vehicles and cryptocurrency worth $100,000.
Reports indicate that Helmy did not appear for a mandatory ICAC investigation, leading NSW Police to issue an arrest warrant, while Transport for NSW affirmed their full cooperation with ICAC’s inquiries.
These events triggered a secret anti-corruption probe called Operation Wyvern and led Protection Barriers into administration, highlighting ongoing public sector corruption risks in NSW.
