South Sudan-born man charged with alleged visa breaches in NSW

A South Sudan-born man appeared before Campbelltown Local Court yesterday (25 November, 2025) charged with allegedly failing to comply with his visa-mandated conditions.

The AFP charged the man, 31, yesterday (25 November, 2025), after he was located in Sydney.

It will be alleged the man breached two of the conditions of his Commonwealth visa by failing to observe his residential curfew obligations and failing to maintain his electronic monitoring device.

The man has been charged with:

  • Four counts of failing to comply with a curfew condition, contrary to section 76C(1) of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth); and
  • One count of failing to maintain an electronic monitoring device, contrary to section 76D of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth).

Both offences carry a maximum penalty of five years’ imprisonment and/or a $99,000 fine.  

The man was granted bail and is set to reappear before the same court on 16 January, 2026.
