In 2002, Mustafa Skaf (his father) was accused of offering a bribe to a prison officer. Mr Skaf allegedly phoned the maximum security facility at 1.30pm on Wednesday 22 September 2002, and was put through to a duty officer. He gave his name and telephone number and asked to speak to his son.When the officer told him that outside calls had to be booked in advance and approved for set times, Mr Skaf offered to pay $100 to be put through to his son. The officer dismissed the offer and ended the conversation. He immediately called the number from the calling number display, and Mustafa Skaf answered.
In September 2002, his mother, Baria, was caught on video attempting to smuggle a letter (to his then fiancée) out of the prison. She was barred from visiting all NSW jails for a period of two years.
