60 Minutes crew involved in Lebanon child recovery attempt arrive back in Australia.

The Channel Nine 60 minutes crew involved in a botched attempt to remove two children in Beirut two weeks ago has arrived back in Australia.

It comes as the lawyer for the head of a child recovery firm still in Lebanon, and facing charges of child abduction at a court in Beirut, has provided the court with a document purporting a payment of almost $70,000 from TCN Channel Nine to the the firm.

The Brisbane mother at the centre of the case, Sally Faulkner, also visited a Beirut court this morning, but left without seeing her children.

More to come.
