Another Costello exits Nine amid internal review

A Current Affair reporter Seb Costello has resigned from Nine as the network investigates an incident where he chased an interviewee into a women’s bathroom and filmed him over the cubicle door.

Last November, Costello and an A Current Affair film crew chased Mo Ahmed, an executive from Oak Capital, into a bathroom at the InterContinental Hotel in Melbourne, and tried to stage an interview through a cubicle door.

Ahmed, whose firm was being sued by ASIC at the time, alleged assault, and Nine launched an internal review into the incident. Costello was stood down, and had not returned to work since the incident.
