Melbourne drug kingpin Tony Mokbel makes a “high priority” appeal

Tony Mokbel says the betrayal he suffered at the hands of police informer Nicola Gobbo should overturn his 30-year drug trafficking sentence. Mokbel could have his bid for freedom heard by Victoria's highest court in July. Four former clients of Ms Gobbo, who was their rat lawyer have their cases before the Court of Appeal.

Ms Gobbo as a police rat represents a substantial miscarriage of justice.
