Former client of St Paul's Prevention Rehabilitation sentenced following IBAC investigation
A former client of St Paul’s Prevention Rehabilitation, Steven Sioulas, was yesterday convicted at the County Court of Victoria of trafficking cocaine and methylamphetamine and perverting the course of justice.
The sentencing follows Operation Murano, an investigation by IBAC, the Independent Broad-based Anti-corruption Commission, into allegations of serious corruption at St Paul’s Prevention Rehabilitation, a registered charity based in Strathmore.
