Part 2: Stealing from Australia’s richest man - Packer’s Gold

Part 2: Stealing from Australia’s richest man - Packer’s Gold

In the 1990s, millions of dollars’ worth of gold vanished from the Sydney CBD office of Australia’s richest man - and police believed the thief didn’t act alone.

In part two, investigators zero in on a prime suspect known as Mr X, pursuing a theory that someone inside Kerry Packer’s inner circle tipped him off about the gold. As the net tightens, uncomfortable questions emerge about how much Packer himself may have known.

In this episode of The Briefing, we continue our break from the daily news cycle and bring you part two of this extraordinary story from LiSTNR’s Crime in Focus.
