A former rugby league player, Garry Sullivan, has been denied bail as he faces charges related to an armed robbery that occurred 32 years ago at the Chadstone shopping center in Melbourne. Sullivan, who had reportedly been in hiding for three decades, was apprehended and brought before the Melbourne Magistrates' Court. The court heard that Sullivan is accused of being involved in the 1994 heist.
Details of the alleged robbery and Sullivan's alleged role were presented during the bail hearing. The case, considered a cold case for over 30 years, saw a significant development with Sullivan's arrest. His refusal of bail means he will remain in custody while legal proceedings continue. The specific circumstances of his alleged involvement in the 1994 incident and his subsequent years evading authorities are central to the ongoing case.
