Bianca Censori's gangster family is embroiled in fresh legal row after her ... trends now

The gangster uncle of Kanye West's wife Bianca Censori faced being thrown back into jail for life after he was caught living with a suspected paedophile, a court has heard. 

Eris Censori, who was once sentenced to death in Western Australia for murdering a waiter, was dubbed the 'Al Capone of Melbourne' before his life of crime crumbled. 

Daily Mail Australia can reveal Censori was arrested by Victoria Police detectives in September 2020 on suspicion of fraud. 

But the discovery of a mobile phone belonging to his housemate - which allegedly contained child pornography - threatened to put him back behind bars for good.

Although cleared of any wrongdoing, the bust saw Censori hauled before the Adult Parole Board and faced being returned to jail to see out his life sentence. 

In a statement of claim filed against the State of Victoria with the Supreme Court of Victoria, Censori alleged the search that put him in front of the parole board was obtained 'through misfeasance and in the absence of facts'. 

Censori - who has changed his name to Tony Campana - claimed his arrest 'defamed' his good character and 'caused him to suffer public ridicule, shame and scorn'. 

He escaped his death penalty for murdering waiter Michael Sideris in the 1980s because capital punishment was later abolished in Western Australia in 1984.

He is the brother of Bianca's father Elia 'Leo' Censori, who also did hard jail time after being convicted in 1982 on a charge of possessing a prohibited import after an Australian Federal Police raid found heroin in his kitchen

Daily Mail Australia last year revealed Leo also has convictions for possession of a pistol and ammunition and served two years of his five-year sentence over the drug charges.

Their eldest brother, Edmondo, known as 'Eddie Capone', also has convictions in Victoria for violence, including assaulting police, theft and threats.

Censori's lawyer Victor Andreou, who once defended former gangland boss Tony Mokbel's mate Zlate 'Steve' Cvetanovski, appeared in court this week on behalf of Censori.

The court heard Censori hoped to gain access to documents that will help him prove his case against the government, which he holds responsible for his arrest by Victoria Police detectives.

In court documents provided to the court, Bianca's uncle claimed police used his sale of a Brunswick property to obtain the search warrant under the guise of investigating an alleged fraud against the Bank of Queensland. 

At the time of his arrest, Censori had been rooming in Bulleen, north-east of Melbourne, with two other men. 

'(Censori) was in his bedroom which had a window view of the front courtyard, when he noticed the gate open and an accompaniment of six large men entered all armed with handguns,' documents stated.

'(He) immediately suspected the accompaniment were members of Victoria Police. The thought filled him with apprehension.'

Police had alleged the Brunswick property he sold had been purchased off him with fraudulently obtained funds. 

'I think you’ve made a mistake. I am the vendor. I didn’t raise any money with any bank,' Censori told the detectives. 

Escorted to his bedroom, Censori claimed cops asked him to hand over documents related to the sale before being asked for access to his phone and computer. 

'Towards the completion of the search, (Censori) was shown a mobile phone retrieved from the bedroom of another occupant and asked questions about the occupier of the said bedroom and contents of the mobile phone,' documents stated.
