A Greek nightclub bouncer has been jailed for 22 years for causing the death of an Australian tourist. Marios Antonopoulos escaped the conviction for murder, but he was found guilty of inflicting 5 wounds that caused the Sydney man’s death. Two other men involved in the attack were also jailed for more than seven years. Twenty-year-old Doujon Zammit was killed while on holiday in Mykonos in July, 2008.


And older Australians could be the winners from a wide-ranging tax review. The Treasury 6 Secretary Ken 7 Henry has signaled tax breaks for older people could be an incentive 8 to keep them in the workforce 9 longer. But low-paid workers in Australia could lose salary perks 10 of up to 30,000 dollars. The restructure will affect church-based hospitals, nursing homes and welfare agencies which provide top-up payments to their workers.
