Salim Mehajer granted bail in NSW court

Controversial Sydney businessman Salim Mehajer has again received conditional bail in a NSW court.

Mehajer, 31, was on Friday ordered to comply with strict conditions including reporting twice daily to police and living with his mother in Lidcombe when his matter was heard in Burwood Local Court.

The former Auburn deputy mayor has been in and out of custody since he was charged with perverting the course of justice and conspiracy to cheat and defraud over an allegedly staged car crash in October 2017.

At the time, Mehajer was on his way to court to face separate charges relating to the assault of a taxi driver.

He was most recently placed behind bars last month for breaching bail conditions by using two mobile phones.

He has already spent two months in jail over the allegedly staged car crash, but has in addition been found guilty of electoral fraud relating to a 2012 plot that also involved his younger sister Fatima.

Mehajer was also placed on an 18-month good behaviour bond last month for intimidating his ex-wife Aysha Learmonth.

Among bail conditions set by magistrate Michelle Goodwin on Friday, Mehajer is not allowed to have or use a mobile phone and must not access any social media or messaging platforms, or have someone to do on his behalf.

He must remain at a Lidcombe home with his mother between 9pm and 7am, surrender his passport and stay away from airports.

The matter will return to court on July 25.
