flag Australia's suppression laws face reform push after wealthy rapist Tom Silvagni was named post-18-month anonymity order based on mental health claims.

flag Legal experts in Victoria, Australia, are urging urgent reform of suppression order laws after convicted rapist Tom Silvagni was publicly named following an 18-month order based on mental health claims. flag Critics say a 2013 change to the Open Courts Act, broadening suppression grounds from "physical safety" to "safety," allows wealthy defendants to shield their identities using unchallenged psychiatric reports, undermining open justice and silencing victims. flag Experts call for reverting to the original "physical safety" standard and increasing scrutiny of such requests.
