Salim claims that he had no obligation to declare his conflict of interest! So much for "not" using his council position for personal profit! http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/auburn-councillor-salim-mehajers-unusual-defence-in-court-it-may-be-unattractive-but-we-believe-it-20160205-gmmvpx.html The wife of controversial Auburn deputy mayor Salim Mehajer has urged the state government not to carry out its threat to suspend the council because it may cause one of their companies to suffer "significant financial loss". http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/salim-mehajers-wife-aysha-urges-state-government-not-to-suspend-auburn-council-20160205-gmn1gb.html Salim Mehajer’s lawyers ask for lift of ban so he could help with vegetation complaints http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/salim-mehajers-lawyers-ask-for-lift-of-ban-so-he-could-help-with-vegetation-complaints/news-story/a4a97b5b46425b915de024f2c3606bb6 All the more reason to sack Auburn Council as many councilors are using their position to benefit their personal businesses. And if Salim is so keen on dealing with overgrown grass then he should use his 4 month suspension as community service time to mow lawns in Auburn LGA. #SackSalimMehajer #SackAuburnCouncil #ICACnow
