Setka’s Third Arrest Sparks Outcry | Australia News

John Setka, ex-head of the CFMEU, is arrested again—this time for allegedly sending threatening emails to union officials, marking his third arrest in under a year. Facing fresh charges while on bail, including menacing communications made just last Monday, Setka’s legal troubles stem from an ongoing probe into alleged corruption and misconduct in construction unions. First arrested in November, then again in February, and with an intervention order issued in July, Setka denies the accusations as politically driven. His resignation earlier this year followed mounting claims of bullying, corruption, and criminal infiltration, leading to the union’s construction and general divisions being placed into administration.
