Strike Force Pearl detectives have charged a woman over an antisemitic video posted online.
On Wednesday 12 February 2025, Strike Force Pearl detectives commenced an investigation into an alleged antisemitic video filmed at Bankstown Hospital and circulated widely on social media.
Following extensive inquiries, investigators arrested a 26-year-old woman after she attended Sutherland Police Station about 7.30pm yesterday (Tuesday 25 February 2025).
She was charged with three commonwealth offences including threaten violence to group, use carriage service to threaten to kill and use carriage service to menace/harass/offend.
NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb said the charges were a major development in what has been a very thorough and exhaustive investigation by detectives attached to Strike Force Pearl.
"Strike Force Pearl detectives must be commended for acting swiftly under enormous pressure and public expectation," Commissioner Webb said.
"These charges have been laid following a lot of hard work and legal advice, received yesterday from the Commonwealth DPP.
"Detectives have overcome obstacles and jurisdictional challenges to get where we are today.
"This is the fourteenth arrest under Strike Force Pearl with a total of 76 charges laid which demonstrates the commitment of strike force detectives investigating these offences," Commissioner Webb said.
The Condell Park woman was granted conditional bail to appear at the Downing Centre Local Court on Wednesday 19 March 2025.
Investigations under Strike Force Pearl continue.
