Salec 'Lekks' Sua of Sydney drill group OneFour has been deported from the country.

As Daily Mail reports, the rapper was returned to New Zealand by Australian Border Force after serving a four-and-a-half year jail sentence over a pub brawl in 2018.

Back in 2019, Sua, alongside two other members from the drill group, Pio Misa (aka YP) and Dahcell Ramos (Celly), was sentenced over the incident which left one man unconscious.

The OneFour rappers got into a violent altercation with three men - Anthony Hayward, Tony Taylor and Shayne Turner - at around 1am on 21 July, 2018 at Rooty Hill's Carousel Inn in Sydney.

“Misa pulled out a timber chair leg from inside his clothes,” District Court Judge James Bennett said.

“He held the timber leg by his side for a short time before hitting Hayward in the back of the head with it twice. Hayward ­immediately backed away.

“Misa then followed him into the middle of the brawl and he hit him for a third time with the timber chair leg.”

The court also heard that Ramos assaulted Taylor "a number of times" in the head with a hammer.

Bennett said that “[Sua] was the instigator and was strenuously involved but was held back fortunately - for his sake - by the security guards".

Sua pled guilty to reckless grievous bodily harm in company and assault occasioning bodily harm.

OneFour performed at New Zealand's Bay Dreams festival earlier this year.

The group were scheduled to perform at The Grass Is Greener festival in Australia this October, but withdrew before organisers revealed that two of its events had been axed.
