Ben Roberts-Smith Granted Bail

A judge in Sydney ordered Roberts-Smith's release from custody under strict conditions, including travel restrictions and a requirement to surrender his passport.

The decision comes 10 days after his arrest followed a lengthy investigation into his conduct during multiple deployments more than a decade ago.

Prosecutors had opposed bail, arguing that the veteran posed a flight risk and could potentially interfere with witnesses.

Roberts-Smith has consistently denied all allegations of wrongdoing and established a formidable legal team to contest the charges.
