Seven men were found guilty in October of the murder of De Leso, including brothers Husain, Mohamed and Musa Alzuain and Daniel Mark Jalleh, Ross William Montgomery, Kyle Lloyd Pryde and Mr Sianis.

The jury could not reach a verdict on an eighth man, Seywan Moradi, and he faces a re-trial.

All seven men found guilty of Mr De Ieso’s murder have lodged appeals against their convictions.
