Convicted drug boss Tony Mokbel is reportedly under investigation over an attack at Barwon Prison that left an inmate in hospital.
Corrections Victoria will not confirm Mokbel's involvement, but says a 48-year-old prisoner was involved in an alleged assault last week.
The department says the other prisoner was taken to hospital for a suspected broken nose and Victoria Police is investigating.
Mokbel is serving a 30-year sentence, with a non-parole period of 22-years, for trafficking more than 45 kilograms of ecstasy and $4 million worth of speed.
The drugs boss was on the run 15 months before he was arrested in Athens in 2007.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I didn't watch the show.
I seem to remember that one of the crime figures died overseas before he could be extradited to Oz. ????
You may be thinking of Christopher Skase?

One of those mafia types did die not so long ago in prison but I can't think of his name. Was it the baby faced one?
