Father and son went to Sydney in November
Bondi Beach attack accused Sajid Akram, 50, and his 24-year-old son Navid Akram had gone to the Philippines last month. According to Philippines immigration officials, both arrived there on November 1 and left the country on November 28 and left for Sydney. This journey has now become an important link for the investigating agencies.
Traveled on Indian passport
The most shocking revelation is that both the accused had traveled to the Philippines on Indian passports. According to immigration records, he had mentioned Davao as his final destination, after which he reached Sydney from Davao via Manila. Philippines agencies are investigating how and under what circumstances Indian passports were used.
Suspicion of training and signs of ISIS
According to Australian media reports, both had gone to the Philippines for “military-style training” before the attack. New South Wales Police said that an improvised explosive device (IED) and two flags associated with ISIS have been recovered from the vehicle registered in the name of Navid. Due to this, the suspicion of radical terrorist ideology behind the attack has deepened.
lied to family
According to the police, both of them had told their families that they were going fishing on the weekend. But in reality they were staying in a short-term rental property in the Campsie area of Sydney, where the attack was allegedly being planned. Later the counter-terrorism team also recovered two weapons from that place.
Security alert was not triggered
NSW Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon said no security alert was triggered during the Philippines trip and it could not be considered an intelligence failure. However, the question is definitely arising that despite such huge preparation, how did both remain unnoticed by the agencies?
fanaticism with the ideology of hatred
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese indicated for the first time that the accused had been radicalized by an “ideology of hate”. He said that initial indications point towards the ideology of ISIS. Navid Akram came in contact with the Australian intelligence agency in 2019, but at that time he was not considered an immediate threat.
Further investigation continues
The Jewish community was targeted in this attack, in which 15 people including a 10-year-old girl, a British-born rabbi, a retired police officer and a Holocaust survivor were killed. 25 people are still hospitalized, of which six are in critical condition. The Bondi Beach area is still under investigation and forensic and ballistic investigations are ongoing. This matter is now raising big questions related to international terrorism and identity security.
