Home detention for former ACC property manager after SFO corruption charges

Mason had previously admitted corruptly receiving $160,000 from a property developer in return for using his position at the ACC to ensure the involvement of a developer known to him in the construction and leasing of a new ACC branch office.

He also admitted corruptly receiving a gift to the value of $9,000 in the form of a business class trip to the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix from a real estate agent in return for involving him in another ACC leasing agreement.

Mason was sentenced in relation to two Crimes Act charges and one Secret Commission Act charge brought by the SFO.

In addition to receiving the payment and gifts, Mason also admitted passing a confidential document listing all Government departmental security officers to an associate involved in the business of installing security systems.
