He's facing ten charges, including contravening a serious crime prevention order, and drug possession offences.

It's alleged the man breached the order by not telling authorities he was staying at a different address, driving a different car, and using multiple phones and SIM cards.

The NSW Supreme Court imposed the order in December 2020 in response to an application by the NSW Police criminal groups squad.

The man was refused bail on Friday and is due to appear in the Parramatta Bail Court on Saturday.
