Stephen Pallaras KC to contest election after mystery accident

·

Former state prosecutor Stephen Pallaras KC says he will still contest next year’s South Australian election despite suffering serious injuries in a mysterious accident two months ago.

The 74-year-old Real Change SA leader was found unconscious outside his North Adelaide home on September 4 with multiple facial fractures.

“I still wonder, ‘what the hell happened, and why it happened’—they’re not questions that I’ve got answers to yet,” he told 7NEWS.

Pallaras spent six days in an induced coma and is now recovering at home. His team believes he may have fallen while taking out the bins.

A veteran lawyer and former Director of Public Prosecutions (2005–2012), Pallaras remains determined to run on a platform to abolish the parole board and tighten sentencing laws.
