ANOTHER client of corrupt driving instructor Jawad Joe Dimachki has faced court and admitted bribing him to get her licence.
Abeir Bassam Said, 19, of Para Vista, appeared in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on Wednesday.
She pleaded guilty to one count of offering a bribe to a public officer, and one count of dishonestly dealing with documents.
Said admitted that, between September 13 and 26 last year, she paid Dimachki for her licence.
Dimachki, 36, of Daw Park, has pleaded guilty to 10 corruption offences that are representative of his total offending.
He is yet to be sentenced – but earned a 40 per cent discount for his plea – and will face sentencing submissions in the District Court in two weeks.
Two of his other clients, Abdul Kajani and Ethan Quadros, will be sentenced in the District Court on Friday.
Yesterday, Magistrate Elizabeth Sheppard remanded Said on continuing bail to face sentencing submissions next week.
