Court orders Mokbel to face retrial on quashed drug-trafficking charges


Friday’s judgment was arguably more of an academic exercise in whether to record a retrial or an acquittal next to Mokbel’s name.
The Tony Mokbel infamous arrest shot in Greece.
His legal team, led by Bret Walker, SC, had argued for an acquittal to be entered into the record because Mokbel would never receive a fair retrial because of the amount of publicity the case had received. Ordering a retrial, the lawyer argued, would undermine the public’s confidence in the integrity of the criminal justice system.
But the court, in a majority ruling from justices David Beach and Robert Osborn, said they were “far from persuaded” that a fair trial could not be held and the very quashing of the conviction in itself condemned the conduct of Victoria Police in utilising Ms Gobbo.
