Overview

• Affidavits released Thursday detail a 2022 plan to airlift George Marrogi from Barwon Prison and move him to a luxury yacht, supported by aerial images, design drawings and a yacht tax invoice.
• Corrections Victoria says targeted searches and intelligence work in April 2022 uncovered the scheme, with an assistant commissioner alleging conspiratorial use of unmonitored legal calls.
• Court material records other options discussed, including a forced extraction during an escort and bribing a staff member to engineer an administrative release.
• Victoria Police later seized the 28‑metre yacht Bahama as proceeds of crime linked to Marrogi’s Notorious Crime Family gang.
• The evidence was filed in Marrogi’s Supreme Court case seeking a declaration that his conditions are inhumane, as prison officials argue his history and escape risk warrant the highest security.
