EXCLUSIVE NSW police top brass blocked a request by sex crimes detectives to travel to Adelaide to interview the woman who alleged she was raped by former Attorney-General Christian Porter during the COVID-19 border closures. The new revelations are contained in a 69-page dossier of documents produced after a demand from NSW Parliament that also reveal for the first time that police emailed the woman for a welfare check and about making a statement following multiple delays - just two days before she died by suicide. Mr Porter rejects the 1988 rape allegation as completely false and has commenced defamation action against the ABC over the original report of the matter.

It is understood after almost 10 years at Minters, Michael Gajic has decided to take on a new role at global law firm Squire Patton Boggs.
Squire has a small – but growing – presence in Australia, with offices in Darwin, Perth and Sydney, and part of Gajic’s remit will be to help drive the growth of its local public M&A practice.
It’s another high-profile loss for Minters, which saw three of its PE partners – Ricky Casali, Glen Sauer and Chris Allen – resign en masse a few months ago, alongside finance partners John Mosley and Stewart Robinson.
