AFP arrests alleged international drug kingpin extradited from Thailand

Australian Federal Police (AFP) have extradited a man from Thailand to Melbourne, who they allege was a senior figure in an international organised crime syndicate accused of conspiring to traffic illegal drugs into Australia.

Key points:

The AFP worked with Thai police to extradite the 66-year-old Chinese-British man from Bangkok to Melbourne

They said he was a senior criminal associate of a transnational drug cartel

It will be alleged the man was part of a conspiracy to traffic five separate quantities of methamphetamine

Working with Royal Thai Police, the AFP extradited the 66-year-old man from Bangkok to Melbourne on Saturday.

The AFP confirmed the man was Chinese-British national Chung Chak Lee.

It will be alleged the man was part of a conspiracy to traffic five separate quantities of methamphetamine — or derivatives of the drug — totalling 40kg over a number of months in 2012.

They said he was a senior criminal associate of a transnational drug cartel.

Thai authorities arrested the man in his Bangkok apartment in October 2020, carrying out an arrest warrant based on charges to be laid in Australia.

The dual national appeared before Melbourne Magistrates Court on Saturday afternoon facing a charge of conspiracy to traffic a commercial quantity of a controlled drug of which the maximum penalty is life imprisonment.

AFP Assistant Commissioner Krissy Barrett said his extradition was part of a long-running investigation into a prolific transnational organised crime syndicate.

"The extradition of someone we allege to be high on the pecking order of this serious criminal syndicate is a significant milestone for the AFP," she said.

"It shows the AFP and its partners remain one step ahead in working tirelessly to keep our community safe."

Azealia Banks makes shocking exit from Miami Pride concert after going on rant with her breasts fully exposed: 'I really don't wanna f**king be here'

Azealia Banks is making headlines for having a bizarre meltdown during the Wynwood Pride concert on Friday, which ended with her storming off the stage.

After performing just four songs during her headlining set, the 31-year-old rapper began going off about how promoters kept changing her call times.

'I'm really not happy to be here. I'm trying y'all, but it's difficult,' she told her fans right before her microphone was cut out as she said, 'I really don't wanna f**king be here.'

The moment, which showed the 212 hitmaker standing on stage with her breasts fully exposed in a daring black ensemble, prompted the crowd to loudly start booing her.

Once they cut her mic, Banks became increasingly angry and she promptly left the concert, leaving concert attendees disappointed and confused.

In video obtained by TMZ, Azealia expresses her displeasure with the event before making her shocking exit from stage.

'For the last month and a half, I've just being fked with… fked around with. Set times been moved, "Oh you're headlining, oh now you're not headlining, now you're not this." I'm really not happy to be here,' she said with a laugh. Some fans cheered in the midst of her rant.

'I am so unhappy to be here. But, what did the fans ever do?… I'm trying, but it's difficult,' she continued.

The video ended with her tossing her microphone and departing the stage as fans expressed their shock. As Azealia made her exit, numerous attendees booed.

A few hours later, she tried to explain her side of what happened on Twitter from the event, her concerns about security to experiencing an allergic reaction to dry ice.

Sean Hannity Proposed Hunter Biden Pardon to Trump Spox After January 6 Capitol Protest

Fox News host Sean Hannity pitched a pardon for Hunter Biden to Trump’s spokeswoman shortly after the January 6 Capitol riot.

According to a report by the Daily Beast, Hannity pitched Trump’s spox on a Hunter pardon because he “genuinely wanted some healing.”

Hannity suggested to Kayleigh McEnany that Trump pardon Hunter Biden before exiting the White House in 2021 according to text messages obtained by the January 6 panel.

The idea to pardon Hunter was not Hannity’s idea, but he pitched the plan to McEnany, according to the Beast.

The Daily Beast reported:

On Thursday, the Jan. 6 Committee released text messages between Hannity and then-White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany. In those text messages, Hannity appears to debrief McEnany on a conversation he had with Trump the day after the attack on the U.S. Capitol.

One item from that conversation: “He was intrigued by the pardon idea!! (Hunter)”

A person familiar with the conversations confirmed to The Daily Beast that the “Hunter” in the text was, in fact, Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden and a longtime target of conservative critics—Hannity foremost among them.

According to the source, Hannity had proposed that Trump issue a last-minute pardon for Hunter Biden, whose business dealings had two years prior been at the center of the ex-president’s campaign to extort an investigation out of the Ukrainian government—efforts that led to Trump’s first impeachment in 2019.

Hannity pitched the idea in a Jan. 7 conversation, framing it as a gesture that might help “smooth things over” after the insurrection’s traumatic rift, this person confirmed. But ultimately, the idea, like others in the text to McEnany—such as “no more stolen election talk” and “attending inauguration”—ultimately went nowhere.

“It died on the vine,” the person recalled, adding that, despite Trump’s initial interest, the pardon was “never seriously considered.”
