The Supreme Court of Victoria will begin hearing the case against former AWB chairman Trevor Flugge on 12 October 2015. The civil charges of breaching his duties as a director relate to the payment of $US225m in kickbacks to the regime of former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein between 1999 and 2004. The Australian Securities & Investments Commission launched civil proceedings against Flugge and other AWB executives after abandoning criminal action.
