Notorious gang rapist Mohammed Skaf is back behind bars after being arrested on allegations he acted as the ringleader of a large-scale drug-supply operation.
The 42-year-old was released from prison in 2021 after serving 21 years behind bars for his role in a series of pack rapes on schoolgirls that horrified the nation.
He was arrested again by police before midnight on Wednesday at a home in Greenacre, in Sydney's southwest, after an investigation into alleged large-scale drug supply.
Police located cocaine and $25,000 in cash while searching Skaf and a park close to where he was arrested, Detective Chief Inspector Jeffrey Walsh said on Thursday.
During a search of the Greenacre home, police allegedly found a further $220,000 in cash, several mobile phones, more cocaine and a small quantity of MDMA.
