Two days after the deadly Bondi Beach terror attack, Sydney remains gripped by shock and grief. Australian investigators have now revealed chilling details about the father-son duo who opened fire during Hanukkah celebrations, killing 15 innocent civilians in one of the country’s worst mass shootings in nearly 30 years. The attackers—50-year-old Sajid Akram, who was killed by police, and his 24-year-old son Naveed Akram, who has emerged from a coma—were allegedly motivated by Islamic State ideology. Authorities found explosive devices and ISIS-linked flags inside their vehicle. Investigators are also probing a recent trip the duo made to the Philippines, a region known for Islamist insurgency, where they may have received military-style training. Indian authorities have clarified that Sajid Akram’s roots in Hyderabad have no link to his radicalisation, and his family in India was unaware of his extremist beliefs.
