Australian police allege a 24-year-old accused of killing 15 people at Sydney’s Bondi Beach trained with firearms alongside his father and recorded a video justifying the attack. The father was shot dead, while the son faces multiple murder and terrorism charges
Australian police said the mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration at Sydney’s Bondi Beach that killed 15 people was inspired by Islamic State ideology. Evidence including IS flags was recovered, prompting authorities to classify the attack as terrorism.
Australian police identified the Bondi Beach terror attackers as father and son Sajid and Naveed Akram, originally from Pakistan, as investigations revealed alleged IS links in the deadliest mass shooting in Australia in nearly 30 years.
The video footage of the incident obtained by 9news.com portal shows Kundi being forced onto Payneham Road while he and his wife, Amritpal Kaur, loudly protest his innocence.
