Former Primary boss wins appeal against criminal conviction
Peter Gregg was the victim of 'a substantial miscarriage of justice', says appeal court
The former boss of Primary Health Care has won an appeal against his criminal conviction for falsifying accounts related to offshore payments totalling $15 million.
Peter Gregg led the GP corporate now known as Healius for two years, following the death of its founder Dr Edmund Bateman.
But in 2017 he stepped down after being accused of falsifying the books when he was chief financial officer at the construction giant Leighton Holdings in 2011.
Found guilty by a NSW District Court jury, Mr Gregg was given a two-year Intensive Correction Order, a custodial sentence involving close supervision in the community.
