Vic police compensate bikie ga
Victoria Police has reportedly paid about $385,000 in compensation to a bikie gang boss who claimed he was set up during a drug squad raid that led to him being wrongly jailed for five months.
Bandidos Outlaw Motorcycle Club boss Robert Kim Sloan launched a civil action following the raid in 2000, The Age newspaper says, and it was settled out of court.
"The taxpayer-funded payment of about $385,000 was made earlier this year, more than two years after Mr Sloan launched his legal action," the newspaper says.
Several members of Victoria Police's now-disbanded drug squad have since been convicted of drug- and corruption-related charges.
