Ryan Barrowei, chair of the Kakadu Board of Management and a Jawoyn traditional owner, faces serious charges of aggravated assault and domestic violence after appearing in court. His legal team sought to suppress details to protect the board’s reputation, but the judge ruled in favor of open justice. Barrowei was granted bail with strict conditions: he must live in a specific Aboriginal community, abstain from alcohol, stay away from his ex-wife, and submit to police testing. His case is adjourned until September 8, just months after his reappointment. The controversy adds pressure to the park’s management, which is already under scrutiny for recent waterfall closures impacting tourism.
