flag Andrew Crook sues Queensland and NAB for $4.15M over his 2014 arrest in a failed scheme to get a confession, claiming damages for false imprisonment and reputational harm.

flag Andrew Crook, a media adviser, has sued the Queensland state and NAB for $4.15 million over his 2014 arrest in a failed scheme to lure NAB employee Adam Gazal to Indonesia for a fake job interview aimed at securing a confession in a civil dispute. flag Charges were dropped in 2020 after lengthy legal proceedings. flag Crook claims he suffered financial loss, reputational damage, and false imprisonment, citing a $160,000 monthly business income before his arrest. flag NAB and the state argue the claim is time-barred, an abuse of process, and lacks legal standing, denying any wrongdoing or compensable harm. flag The case remains pending in the Supreme Court of Queensland.
