Ms Holgate, Wagh and Australian Postal Corporation [2008] AATA 676 (5 August 2008). This decision is publicly available. I provided the link to you a short while ago for your ease of access to it.  

Dear Valued Supporters,

Two days ago, on 22 March 2019 the milestone of Ten Thousand signatures was reached. What a great support that is. Thank you all for your help and support to make a change and to get justice for my family.  Ordinary people around the country have now shown their support by signing my petition to Ms Christine Holgate. All of you are the customers of Australia Post and all the Australian Citizens are also the owners of Australia Post.

To remind Ms Holgate that Australia Post is still hiding the REAL documents involved in the corrupt and criminal activities I am posting the “Reasons for Application” that I made to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal- AAT to review the Freedom of Information decisions made by two Australia Post officials. They are:

1.       Mr. Raj Pavarajah FOI Coordinator (acting) who was the Initial decision maker and

2.       Mr. Andy Caprackas Legal Officer/National FOI Officer who reviewed the initial decision of Mr Raj Pavarajah.

Both these decisions were flawed and the REAL documents involved in the corrupt, fraudulent and criminal activities were never released to me. This is why this matter has continued and all the efforts by Australia Post and others to wear us down so that we stop this from pursuing have failed. We have suffered enormously and after many requests Ms Holgate is not making any effort to give me a meeting. She has also not released the REAL documents involved in this matter where Indonesian Passport was used on my name to commit crimes here in Sydney using Australia Post’s services.

I paid $639 to the AAT in February 2007 to hear this matter. I went to AAT for one and a half years regularly with the great confidence and hope that I will get a chance to cross refer at least those Australia Post officials that knew or involved in these matters.

What I saw and experienced was nothing but bias, breaches of AAT rules, not allowing me to call even a single employee of Australia Post to answer my questions, special favours and treatment to Australia Post lawyers and finally a corrupt decision where the AAT’s Senior Member Ms Geri Ettinger went to extra-ordinary lengths to protect Australia Post is evident. Her decision started with a false background in No.1 below and ended with alleged corrupt conduct when she refused my request to obtain telephone call details from Telstra. Her Point 69 is seriously flawed. She omitted the landline number appearing in her decision that was before her. The person that used that number is Mr Steve Gabell, who reported the fraudulent mail redirection matter using my name to us. The documentary evidence of that number being used on 15 June 2006 is with Australia Post, many others and my family as well.

If the tribunal rules were followed by both Ms Ettinger and Australia Post this matter could have been resolved back in 2008.

The documented judicial corruption needs to be denounced with one voice by the people of this country. People going to courts and tribunal must be given the opportunity to hear them and treat them equally. The money powers, legal powers and resources of Australia Post used to cover up the TRUTH must be questioned by the people of this nation because this case demonstrates that they used these strengths against my family to cover up corruptions and crimes and continue to do so now under the leadership of Ms Holgate.

Now please look the following from Ms Geri Ettinger’s decision.

5 August 2008                                         Ms G Ettinger, Senior Member

BACKGROUND

1.   Mr Vasant Wagh has lodged an appeal to this Tribunal against a decision of the Australian Postal Corporation, (Australia Post), the Respondent in these proceedings, in relation to his request for documents from it under the Freedom of Information Act 1982. It is not unusual in such applications that certain documents or parts of documents are withheld, and it is against this decision of Australia Post dated 21 December 2006 which Mr Wagh appeals.

(My Comment: Now please look at the reasons I went to AAT in the photo posted above in this update below my Cheque to AAT for $639.00).

I repeat those below:

1.The decision is not the correct or preferred decision.

2. Not all documents available have been released.

3.Some documents that have been released appear to have been either tampered with or are false documents.

4. Seeking the release of all relevant documents including original documents regarding point 3 above.

The above point 1 in “Background” mentioned by Ms Geri Ettinger therefore is not completely true as that is not what my application to AAT states for reviewing Australia Post’s decision.

The following was my request to Ms Geri Ettinger to obtain the telephone call records for a landline number of Australia Post’s Alexandria Delivery Facility-ADF. She refused to do so by saying it will delay the matter further when it was already running there for one and a half years. Those records are important to prove Australia Post’s hiding of the truth, corrupt conduct, fabrication of documents, my imposters details and so on.

Ms Ettinger’s actions of denying this request helped Australia Post to cover up crimes and corruption and fraud.

The below is my request to AAT that could have resolved this matter there and then only by proving Australia Post’s dishonesty, immoral and unethical activities, fabrication of documents and records, JP certification of fabricated documents and so on but Ms Ettinger stopped that by abusing her authority.

This is what she wrote in her decision.

MR WAGH’S REQUEST THAT A SUMMONS BE ISSUED TO MR SOL TRUJILLO, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, TELSTRA CORPORATION LTD

68. In his letter dated 14 July 2008, Mr Wagh requested that the Tribunal issue a Summons to the Chief Executive Officer of Telstra Corporation Ltd to lodge all “documents” made in relation to telephone calls to and from an Australia Post Sydney number on 15 June 2006. He included a definition of “documents”.

69. Mr Batskos told me that the number is a direct line to a staff member of Australia Post who has been using that telephone for a year only (indicating that person was not using the number on 15 June 2006). He told me that numerous people had used that number over the period. Mr Batskos referred me to the reasons Mr Wagh has given for wanting the “documents”.

70. I noted that Mr Wagh wrote that for the following reasons but not limited to those, he required the “documents” :

“1) In order to properly prepare his application pursuant to Section 21A of the AAT Act seeking reconstitution of the Tribunal (which will be seeking the removal of Senior Member Ms. Geri Ettinger from any further involvement in these proceedings).

2) In order to properly prepare his response to the Respondent’s 10-page dismissal application dated 18 February 2008.

3) In order to prove that his application for review is NOT frivolous or vexatious.”

Dear Supporters, now you can see how easy it was to get those records, that Australia Post already have but are not ready to give me, from Telstra. The point 69 above does not mention the telephone number to go public in this decision despite it was before Ms Geri Ettinger.

Mr Mick Batskos runs the business called "FOI Solutions" from his Melbourne office. Australia Post hired him despite they had two of their own lawyers attending the AAT hearings. I was representing myself after initially using a solicitor.

The matter here is unprecedented in the history of Australia Post and probably our country. This type of documented corruption has no place in our country and must be wiped out.

Ms Geri Ettinger’s unacceptable conduct that protected Australia Post deserves to be investigated and we need people power for that to happen.

I have once again contacted Mr Steve Gabell and Mr Don Kane in the last couple of days to tell me the truth as they were the first two to handle the documents involved. I am awaiting them to respond. My many previous requests to tell me the truth have been ignored by both of them.

This matter is in the public interest because the Identity Thefts is no longer a matter that can be swept under the carpet years in and years out. Close to a million people in our country alone become victims each year.

The people responsible to help the victims cannot commit crimes of hiding the truth. In this case there are numerous people that have allegedly done just that and that is covering up the truth and ignoring my family’s pain and suffering and psychological torture.

We need to denounce this conduct with one voice and we start from Australia Post.

Ms Holgate has a duty to provide me with that truth and her silence, since I first contacted her, is not acceptable at all.

Please keep the support growing as this could affect anyone at any time if the corrupt authorities are allowed to keep the crimes covered up for ever.

Your support is invaluable and I request Ms Holgate to respect the strong support expressed by over 10 000 people that want a resolution to this matter.

My last update to Ms Holgate was requesting her to respond to my complaint against Mr Paul Gardner. Not even an acknowledgement of that complaint has been received.

Please keep helping and please keep spreading the word as this matter must be resolved.
