Supreme Court rules Victoria Police and informant colluded to unjustly convict drug lord Tony Mokbel.

The Supreme Court has found that Victoria Police and informer Nicola Gobbo were involved in a "joint criminal enterprise" to pervert justice in the case against drug lord Tony Mokbel. This ruling significantly increases the chances that Mokbel's 30-year sentence will be overturned. Four police members are implicated in collaborating with Gobbo to achieve an unlawful objective. The case, known as the "Lawyer X" saga, has also criticized former top cop Simon Overland and prosecutor John Champion.
