Overview
- Victoria’s Director of Public Prosecutions filed a discontinuance in the Orbital matter, and a judicial registrar discharged Tony Mokbel’s bail.
- Mokbel now has no pending charges in that case, with his remaining Magnum conviction previously re-sentenced to time served.
- The decision followed an October 2025 appeal ruling that quashed the Quills conviction, ordered a retrial on Orbital, and upheld Magnum.
- Prosecutors cited the age of the alleged 2005 offending, likely delays, the absence of an actual importation, and Mokbel’s age, health and lengthy time already served.
- The Orbital case alleged Mokbel sought to source about 100 kilograms of MDMA during meetings with undercover officers in June 2005.
