“However, no statement will be issued as the case has been referred to the court in Australia by Crocker’s lawyer,” said the spokesman when contacted by Astro AWANI today.
The Herald Sun reported, that last year's incident had caused Crocker to suffer multiple joint fractures and a ligament tear as well as deep vein thrombosis below her right knee which resulted in surgery.
