A pro-Israel lobby group has asked the federal court to refer a group of editors, reporters and lawyers from the Age and Fairfax Media for contempt proceedings, alleging the newspapers breached a suppression order made by the judge in the Antoinette Lattouf unlawful termination case.
Justice Darryl Rangiah granted a suppression order during the unlawful termination case in February to protect the identities and contact details of pro-Israel individuals who had contacted the ABC with complaints about Lattouf’s employment.
