60 Minutes reporter Tara Brown returned to the airwaves last night with her first story following the debacle in Lebanon, at the same time as ‘child recovery agent’ Adam Whittington finally left Beirut.
Whittington flew to family in Sweden, following four months behind bars after the botched kidnapping attempt and ensuing legal case.
He thanked his lawyer, supporters, Australian & British Embassies officials and the Australian media (“beside the first two weeks of your reporting”).
Whittington is expected back in Australia next month and vowing to reveal more details.
“Finally, finally the the truth is coming out, very soon, don’t worry about that,” he told Fairfax.
British accomplice Craig Michael and two Lebanese “fixers”, Mohamed Khaled Barbour and Mohammed Hamza, have also received bail but do not have the funds to pay the $US20,000 bail.
Nine reporter Tara Brown, last night covering a story on a 2014 Rozelle fire, drew mixed comments on social media.
Meanwhile producer Rebecca Le Tourneau recently pleaded guilty to a low-range drink driving offence in Glebe in early June.
