A Sydney Botox queen at the centre of a collapsed chain of cosmetic clinics launched an expletive-laden tirade towards an ex-employee she suspected of sleeping with her former husband, calling her a “f—king dog” and a “slut”, a court has heard.
Juliet Young, described by liquidators of Injectable Institute Australia as a “shadow director”, pleaded guilty to intimidation charges stemming from the bizarre interaction with her one-time employee Jill O’Donnell, which occurred in May last year following the breakdown of Young’s working relationship with her ex-lover, Fadi Dwayhi.
Young’s new husband, Belal Hamdan, has also pleaded guilty to intimidation amid revelations he too was involved in the foul-mouthed phone call, calling Ms O’Donnell a “little skanky slut” and a “f—king whore”.
Both Young and Hamdan had been due to face sentencing at Sydney’s Downing Local Court on Friday, however the case was adjourned to August because their lawyer was ill.
Agreed facts tendered to the court reveal Young and Mr Dwayhi separated in January 2022 but continued to work together, even after Young married Hamdan in April that same year.
However, the court heard the working relationship between the ex-lovers broke down in May, with text messages revealing Young became fixated on her former husband’s personal life and the idea he was sleeping with Ms O’Donnell.
The dispute came to a head on May 17, when Hamdan ran into Young’s former neighbour, 18-year-old Gabriele Care, at the gym.
The court heard Hamdan accosted Mr Care and accused him of taking Mr Dwayhi’s side when he split with Young.
“You are a f—king low life, you f—king dog,” Hamdan said, causing Mr Care to feel intimidated.
The facts said Hamdan then drove Mr Care to Young’s house in Blakehurst, where they continued to interrogate him, before calling Ms O’Donnell on the phone.
The court heard Young screamed at Ms O’Donnell down the phone, telling her “I hope your f—king father dies, you f—king Little Dog”.
Hamdan continued the abuse, calling Ms O’Donnell a “little slut” and accusing her of being a homewrecker.
“You f—king little skanky little slut you are,” he yelled through the phone.
“You’re a little f—king whore. That’s what you do, you break up families, you little f—king whore.”
The court heard the call left Ms O’Donnell so fearful she stayed with friends for a week and didn’t return home.
The matter was reported to police, who arrested Young and Hamdan on May 20.
The Daily Telegraph has previously reported that liquidators for Injectable Institute Australia propose to pursue Young for nearly $600,000 on behalf of more than 300 creditors owed money after the company went under in February this year following the sudden death of its owner and sole director, Michael Zillig.
Cor Cordis liquidator Jason Tang alleges in a report to creditors that IIA was being run by Young as a “shadow director”, saying she had access to the company’s bank accounts, controlled it funds and executed “loan agreements on behalf of the company with third parties”.
Mr Dwayhi is not accused of any wrong doing.
Young and Hamdan will return to court on August 8 for sentencing.
