Overview
- District Court Judge Mark Williams dismissed Mohommed Farhat’s appeal, leaving his one‑year, eight‑month jail term in place.
- Prosecutors pointed to recorded prison calls in December and January in which he allegedly threatened to kill a person known to him, which the judge said reinforced the case.
- The NSW government has asked the Supreme Court for an extended supervision order; Justice Peter Hamill ordered two psychiatric or psychological assessments and declined an interim order.
- Farhat remains in custody after the State Parole Authority revoked his statutory parole in December, with his sentence due to expire in October.
- Farhat and co‑offender Thomas Stojanovski earlier admitted to the November 2024 Woollahra arson and graffiti spree that caused more than $100,000 damage, including to cars, a restaurant and a fire station.
