A producer of YouTube comedian Friendlyjordies has been arrested for allegedly stalking and intimidating NSW Deputy Premier John Barilaro.
Kristo Langker, 21, who works for Jordan Shanks, also known as Friendlyjordies, was arrested from his Dulwich Hill home on June 4, by NSW Police’s Fixated Persons Investigation Unit, a unit established to combat lone wolf terror attacks.
Xenophon Davis, lawyers acting for Mr Shanks’s team, disputed the NSW Police version of events, labelling the arrest of Mr Langker “highly alarming”.
“We are highly disturbed by misinformation that police appear to have acted upon,” the firm’s partner Mark Davis said in a statement.
“We have the video of the interaction with the Deputy Premier and it does not appear to accord with the police facts.”
Mark Davis of Xenophon Davis, the lawyers representing Friendlyjordies in the John Barilaro case are known for their work removing a cannabis activist from the terrorist watch list, providing perfect expertise to defend new stalking charges brought against producer Kristo Langker.
