It has been revealed that over the past five years, $1.7 Million worth of contracts were given to the sister of former Minister of National Defence & Border Security, and the current Minister of Home Affairs, Oscar Mira. Leaked Smartstream screenshots show that between December 2020 and August 2025, Mira’s sister, Jenny Shubra Mira received approximately $1.7 Million dollars, mostly from the Ministry of Defence.
