New video sees Adam Abdallah bailed after allegedly breaking soccer referee Khodr Yaghi’s jaw

The man who allegedly assaulted a referee at a suburban football game has been released on bail with strict conditions after a new video came to light.

Adam Abdallah, 25, received widespread condemnation after a video purportedly showing him violently assaulting soccer official Khodr Yaghi in Sydney’s southwest went viral in late April.

Abdallah had been in custody since May 1 but on Wednesday was granted bail unopposed in the NSW Supreme Court.

The prosecution said it did not oppose his release because a new video of the incident had come to light since Abdallah was initially refused bail.

The prosecutor didn’t oppose bail for amateur boxer Adam Abdallah (pictured) because of new video that was shown to the court on Wednesday 

Abdallah is accused of assaulting soccer referee Khodr Yaghi (pictured) at a game in Sydney in April, leaving him with a badly broken jaw that required reconstructive surgery 

‘It somewhat changes the narrative from the shortened clip the media had,’ a lawyer representing the Director of Public Prosecutions said.

The bail conditions require the amateur boxer to remain in his house at all times, unless accompanied by his mother or his wife, who is six months’ pregnant.

Justice Mark Ierace said the conditions effectively confine Abdallah to ‘house arrest.’

As Abdallah has no prior criminal convictions, other than one traffic matter, Justice Ierace said the ‘alleged behaviour would appear to be quite out of character’.

Mr Yaghi, 45, underwent reconstructive surgery in a Sydney hospital after the incident left his jaw broken in three places and knocked out three teeth.

New footage of the alleged attack (pictured in an earlier video) is lengthier than the ‘shortened version’ the media first ran with, the court was told

Abdallah was a suspended player for Greenacre Eagles, which withdrew from the rest of the men’s premier league winter season and promised to help the local association impose appropriate sanctions.

NSW Sports Minister Steve Kamper, a past president of Sydney Olympic Football Club, said he had sought assurances from governing body Football NSW that the strongest possible action would be taken over the alleged attack on Mr Yaghi.

‘This is one of the worst attacks I’ve ever seen at any sporting event at any level,’ he said in a statement days after the incident.

‘This was a disgusting and cowardly attack. It goes without saying that this kind of behaviour is totally unacceptable.’

Abdallah next faces court on June 28.
