Mahmoud Chami

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mahmoud Chami (born in 1982) is a convicted gang rapist. Chami was a member of a Muslim Lebanese Australian gang rape attack squad in the Sydney gang rapes where the gang targeted White Australian females.

Chami sat with his head bowed in the Courtroom dock throughout his trial where he was found guilty of the rape and detention of a 18-year-old woman who was lured from a train at Bankstown on August 30, 2000.

The judge told how Chami, knowing the woman had already been raped by a group of men in Bankstown, took her from them and told her he would take her home.

Instead, he threatened to shoot her with what she thought was a gun, drove her to an industrial estate at Chullora, and raped her himself, knowing she would be raped by other men after him.

Chami was sentenced to eighteen years with a non-parole period of ten years. Chami unsuccessfully appealed against his sentence in 2005.

Mahmoud Chami will now be eligible for release in December, 2012.
