Opposition Leader denies support
The NSW Opposition Leader has "categorically" denied writing a letter of support for a convicted paedophile.
Jodi McKay agreed the letter relating to the Tamil refugee, who reportedly served a jail sentence for sexually assaulting a 13-year-old Sydney girl, was signed by her in August 2018.
However she said it was incorrectly characterised in legal documents in the Administrative Appeals Tribunal as a "letter of support".

Death at swimming hole
(
ABC News)
A report is being prepared for the coroner after a teenager died after jumping into a popular swimming spot in Sydney's south-west.
Police say the 15-year-old boy dived into The Basin in Kentlyn with three others but failed to resurface after entering the water.
Cliff diving is common at the waterhole but Royal Life Saving Australia's Justin Scarr said the death was a tragic reminder of the dangers involved.
"People underestimate the risks associated with swimming in inland waterways like rivers and lakes. Often the surface looks calm and still but below the surface can be all sorts of snags and hidden rocks and often currents and those currents can get people into significant trouble," he said.
