Fugitive property developer Jean Nassif has continued giving evidence to the New South Wales Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) for a second consecutive day. Dialing in remotely from a bedroom in Beirut, Lebanon, Nassif swore during the proceedings and declared that "no one can make me shut up" while asserting that he is not corrupt.
During the remote hearing, Nassif beamed into the inquiry and waved handwritten notes at counsel assisting Peggy Dwyer. The developments form part of an ongoing corruption watchdog investigation involving the property developer, who remains on the run.
