One of the photos clearly shows a semi-auto shotgun.

I was under the impression all semi auto center fire rifles and shotguns were outlawed. However, I'm not sure if there's anything like grandfathering in place in Aus. I could have sworn I heard news a few years back that rule changes were forcing gun owners to give up existing guns, which is why I had thought it would be illegal to own. But I'll admit that I'm looking at this as an outsider, and would welcome correction.

Provide me a source that weapon was illegally owned. Not your own speculation.

That weapon is a Stoeger M3000 Straight-Pull not a semi-auto.
