Court proceedings in Melbourne focus on alleged involvement in a 1994 shopping centre hold-up that authorities say has been linked to Garry Sullivan after nearly 30 years. Multiple outlets report that prosecutors claim DNA evidence connected Sullivan to the robbery via material found on a discarded glove. The case centers on whether the DNA profile supports the allegation that Sullivan was involved at the time of the incident.

The reporting also notes that Sullivan made remarks while facing the charges, with one quoted statement indicating he should “take the medicine.” The articles describe how the case is being tested in court as the prosecution relies on the DNA linkage after the long delay.

While the outlets consistently describe the same core allegations and evidence type, they also reflect that the matter remains before the courts, meaning the claims have not been established as fact. The reporting indicates the dispute concerns the interpretation and significance of the DNA match and what it shows about Sullivan’s alleged role in the earlier hold-up.
