前澳大利亚新南威尔士州自由党议员、前军官David Elliott在廉政公署(ICAC)出庭作证,声称逃亡房地产开发商Jean Nassif试图通过贿赂和骚扰将其赶出权力中心12。Elliott指控Nassif向自由党右翼操纵者Christian Ellis、Jeremy Greenwood和Charles Perrottet等人提供资金,试图安排对其不利的公职人员1。Nassif于2022年12月逃往黎巴嫩,面临严重欺诈指控,其公司Toplace因债务约16亿澳元而倒闭1。Elliott还披露,私家侦探Shane De Kauwe曾监视他不再居住的房屋2。Elliott在ICAC外召开临时记者会,称他将对诽谤他的人采取法律行动2。
廉政公署调查中还发现了证据销毁行为。天主教学校新南威尔士州前首席执行官Dallas McInerney因在廉政调查期间进行工厂重置清除手机数据而被解雇12。McInerney在Hunters Hill Hotel进行工厂重置后,于周三向ICAC承认他擦除了工作iPhone和iPad,随后于周五上午被Catholic Schools NSW董事会解雇2。廉政公署调查员Peggy Dwyer称McInerney的行为是"明显的消除证据企图"1。此外,前公平交易部长Eleni Petinos作证指控自己被操纵参与移除建筑专员David Chandler的阴谋,称对此感到厌恶2。
Former military officer and New South Wales Liberal MP David Elliott testified before the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) that property developer Jean Nassif attempted to remove him from power through bribery directed at political figures.1 Elliott alleged that Nassif provided funding to Liberal Party right-wing operatives including Christian Ellis, Jeremy Greenwood, and Charles Perrottet in an effort to arrange the removal of public officials unfavorable to the developer.1
At the hearing, Elliott also revealed that Nassif had orchestrated a surveillance campaign against him, carried out by private investigator Shane De Kauwe, who monitored a property where Elliott no longer resided.2 Elliott addressed the media outside the ICAC to declare he would pursue legal action against those who had defamed him.2 The case centers on Nassif, who fled to Lebanon in December 2022 facing serious fraud allegations, and whose company Toplace collapsed under approximately 1.6 billion Australian dollars in debt.1
The ICAC inquiry has uncovered additional misconduct during its proceedings. Dallas McInerney, former CEO of Catholic Schools NSW, admitted to performing a factory reset on his work iPhone and iPad at Hunters Hill Hotel, actions ICAC investigator Peggy Dwyer characterized as "an apparent attempt to destroy evidence."12 McInerney was dismissed by the Catholic Schools NSW board on Friday morning following the revelation.2 In separate testimony, former Fair Trading Minister Eleni Petinos expressed her revulsion at being manipulated into involvement in a conspiracy to remove building commissioner David Chandler.2
