Former local councillor Robert De Jonge was involved in a chaotic scene outside Christies Beach Magistrates Court in Adelaide, following allegations of stalking.
De Jonge, previously a member of the City of Onkaparinga, faces six charges of aggravated stalking, including accusations of using a tracking device and leaving notes on a woman’s car.
During his court appearance on Tuesday De Jonge was pursued outside the courthouse, marking the second time in recent months he has been involved in a public chase, following a previous incident with a TV journalist.
When asked by a news reporter if he would contest the charges, De Jonge confidently responded, “Of course. I haven’t done anything wrong.”
The tense exchange outside the court continued as De Jonge engaged with a man in a black singlet in a bizarre foot chase through the carpark.
