Summary
Three people face historic attempted people smuggling charges in Western Australia after a yacht was intercepted near Exmouth en route to Indonesia, marking the first time such charges have been brought in WA. The alleged ringleader, a 32-year-old outlaw biker, is being extradited to Queensland, while two others — Cass Williams and Jessica Beckett — appeared in Carnarvon court. Separately, a 40-year-old NSW woman, Fatma Skaf, was arrested between Exmouth and Karratha and also charged. Authorities are still hunting the suspected mastermind, with multiple serious charges including drug trafficking looming. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
