One of the men arrested over the weekend in a violent burglary at the home of an elderly Perth couple had been released from custody last November as part of a controversial High Court sentence.
This headline can reveal Majid Jamshidi Doukoshkan, 43, is one of three men accused of a violent attack on Ninette and Philip Simons at their home in Girrawheen, in Perth's northern suburbs, on April 16.
Ninette and Philip Simons were assaulted and robbed at their home in Girrawheen.
The men allegedly posed as police officers and said they had a warrant to search the house for the stolen gold.
Philip, 76, claimed he was tied up, while Ninette, 73, a recent cancer survivor, was allegedly violently assaulted.
The three men allegedly fled the home with $200,000 in jewelry and other items.
After a week-long manhunt, police arrested three people in connection with the incident at the weekend.
Doukoshkan was charged with burglary, theft, impersonating a public official, assault and battery.
He was part of the cohort of detainees released from Perth's Yongah Hill Detention Center last November after a landmark High Court ruling found indefinite detention for detainees who could not be deported unlawful.
Immigration Minister Andrew Giles has been contacted for comment.
