AUBURN deputy mayor Salim Mehajer has been charged with intimidation, and served with a personal violence order, after allegedly threatening the father of Sydney siege survivor Joel Herat outside a fitness club.

Mehajer, who made headlines over his extravagant wedding in Sydney, was being investigated over the incident which allegedly occurred on September 16 outside Anytime Fitness in Burwood.

A police spokesperson confirmed to news.com.au that a 29-year-old man had been served with a future court attendance notice for the offence of intimidation and would appear at Burwood Local Court on November 19.

He has also been served with a personal violence order.

There were reports that police had been trying to track down Mehajer earlier today to serve the notices, and radio broadcaster Ray Hadley even encouraged his listeners who saw Mehajer to phone in with his location.

In an email response to news.com.au, Mehajer confirmed about 2pm that an appointment had been scheduled with Burwood police, “so allegations of ‘searching for me’ is simply nonsense and silly journalism,” he said.

He later commented that he was not personally served with any court documents, “I have left this in the hands of counsel to deal with”.

He also noted that the court notice was to answer allegations, “I will remain patient with such, as eventually, justice will be served”.

Earlier today, Mehajer shared a strange post on his Facebook page addressed to the “Commissioner” and stating that NSW police officers were “continuing to make a fool not only of themselves, but of our country”.

It was posted about 11.30am, before being deleted and replaced with a message of identical wording. In the post Mehajer complained that a new Mercedes G63 AMG he had purchased from a dealership had been deemed unroadworthy.

“Immediately, registration was cancelled and was told to walk home - and leave the vehicle behind,” Mehajer said in the post.

The car is worth $229,000 plus on road costs, but Mehajer said he was told that the problem was related to the exhaust being located on the side of the car, not at the back, directing emissions to drivers alongside.

“I remind you, I’ll always use negativity as more motivation to work even harder and become even stronger. The reason I never give up hope is because everything has become basically hopeless,” he wrote.

7 News at 6pm: Salim Mehajer notified he'll be charged over kidnap allegations and formally served with AVO papers. http://t.co/UIiiatg9Su — 7 News Sydney (@7NewsSydney) October 8, 2015

Police have charged Mehajer over allegedly confronting Bruce Herat, 52, as he made his way to his car last month.

The alleged conflict began inside the club when Herat, who recently began working at the club as a personal trainer, asked Mehajer to stop dropping weights on the floor of the gym.

When confronted, Mehajer allegedly said: “Don’t you know who I am?”

When Herat went to his car later, police were told Mehajer approached him.

“I’m Salim Mehajer,” he ­allegedly said.

“I’m going to take this further. I’m going to find out where you live and have your kids kidnapped.”

But in a written statement to Nine News, Mehajer denied the allegations and said he planned to sue Anytime Fitness and Herat for $10 million in damages.

This week the property developer revealed his aspirations to be prime minister.

“I would love to make my way up to the very top spot,” he told the Nine Network.

Mehajer made headlines for his show-stopping August wedding and was re-elected as Auburn deputy mayor in September despite concerns about a potential conflict between his position on the council and his property interests.

Mehajer said he didn’t think he had “what it takes to be a super star”.

“But we’ll see what happens,” he said.

“If an opportunity knocks at my door, I’m always willing for a challenge.”
