Rogerson charged with student's murder

Written By Unknown on Selasa, 27 Mei 2014 | 13.23

DISGRACED ex-NSW detective Roger Rogerson has been charged with the murder of university student Jamie Gao.

Police confirmed the human remains found floating in waters off Cronulla in Sydney's south on Monday morning were those of Mr Gao.

Rogerson was charged with murder and large commercial drug supply.

He has been refused bail to appear in Bankstown Local Court on Tuesday.

A handcuffed Rogerson was frogmarched out of his Sydney home in dramatic scenes on Tuesday morning and taken to Bankstown police station for questioning.

Fellow former Sydney detective and self-titled whistleblower Glen McNamara was charged on Monday with Mr Gao's murder.

Police said a post-mortem examination of Mr Gao's body had not been completed.

Rogerson's lawyer, Paul Kenny, earlier on Tuesday said the disgraced former policeman had been "treated like a dog" by police.

Rogerson was meeting with Mr Kenny at his Padstow Heights home on Tuesday morning when police swooped, banging on his door and surrounding the home.

Mr Kenny said he would be calling NSW Police Commissioner Andrew Scipione to complain about his client's treatment.

"He was treated like a dog. I've never seen conduct like this by NSW police," Mr Kenny said.

"This is like something off a TV show, but a bad TV show."

Mr Kenny said Rogerson, 73, was just about to head off to a meeting with police when the officers arrived.

"Police starting smashing at the door and a number of them came into Mr Rogerson's office where we were having a legal conference to make arrangements to go into the city," he said.

"I was just about to call Superintendent (Luke) Moore to let him know we were on our way."

The NSW Police said in a statement that they were not satisfied with Rogerson's arrangements and decided to arrest him.

Police allege Mr Gao was killed last Tuesday after a drug deal went wrong.

Mr Kenny said on Tuesday that Rogerson was shocked at being linked to the murder.

He appealed for calm, telling journalists Rogerson wanted to avoid any media hysteria.

"We don't want any OJ Simpson situation," he said.

Rogerson is one of the most infamous policemen in NSW history.

The highly-decorated detective was dismissed from the force in the 1980s after being convicted of conspiring to pervert the course of justice.

His police career was later depicted in the ABC drama series Blue Murder.
