Woman charged over Obeid-linked NSW fire

A woman has become the second person charged by police over two fires at a Sydney function centre linked to the Obeid family.

The Bellevue Reception Centre in Bankstown was set alight in December 2016 and again in January, with significant damage caused and police last month laying charges against 33-year-old Omar Jamal Eddine.

On Thursday, a 26-year-old woman was also charged with being an accessory after the fact and concealing a serious indictable offence.

She's been granted strict bail and is expected to face Bankstown Local Court on October 18.

Eddine appeared in court last month with his lawyer indicating he would defend a dishonesty charge.

AAP understands the reception centre is owned by Redpoc whose directors are Paul Obeid, son of corrupt former NSW minister Eddie Obeid, and a former business partner of the ex-MP, Walhan Wehbe.

Police have released security footage of the incident that shows two men lighting fires.

The first fire was put out relatively quickly on Boxing Day 2016 but left extensive smoke damage while the second blaze, on January 3, caused major damage to the building.
