Girrawheen bashing: Elderly woman allegedly battered unconscious in home ... trends now
One of three men accused of beating an elderly woman unconscious in her own home has been revealed to be a detainee freed from immigration detention.
Majid Jamshidi Doukoshkan, 43, was one of 149 people released from immigration detention after the High Court ruled against indefinite detention late last year.
Jamshidi Doukoshkan faced a Perth court in February after breaching some of his bail conditions.
He faced court again from custody on Monday after allegedly breaking into the home of Ninette, 73, and Philip Simons, 76, in Girrawheen in Perth's north, on April 16.
Mr and Mrs Simons were both inside their home on Allinson Drive when three men allegedly impersonating police officers knocked on their door.
As soon as Mr Simons opened the door he was allegedly pushed to the ground and had his hands bound behind his back.
Mrs Simons was allegedly attacked shortly after with the group holding her to the ground and punching her in the face several times, knocking her unconscious.

'The dizziness is driving me crazy.'
