Former NRL star Jarryd Hayne has been taken into custody after having his bail revoked as he awaits sentencing.
The former Eels star was earlier this month convicted of sexual assaulting a women in Newcastle on the night of the 2018 NRL Grand Final.
The court previously heard Hayne was targeted by others in custody because of his public profile.
However, the Director of Public Prosecutions made a Supreme Court detention application to immediately place him behind bars.
Hayne continues to maintain his innocence despite the conviction.
