Attack in Australia: Documents claim suspects trained with weapons

A police report released by the court on Monday (22) detailed the activities of the alleged shooters before the massacre on Bondi beach in Sydney, Australia, last week, which left 15 people dead.

The documents included a CCTV image of the duo, Sajid and Naveed Akram, leaving a rented residence on the morning of the attack, carrying long, bulky objects wrapped in blankets.

The report further showed the father and son allegedly training with firearms in an isolated rural area of ​​New South Wales, Australia’s most populous state, which includes the city of Sydney.

Police believe the objects wrapped in the blankets were two single-barreled shotguns, a Beretta rifle, three , a bomb made from a tennis ball and a large improvised explosive device.

The document also showed images of what appeared to be an improvised explosive device and a homemade flag in the suspects’ car after the arrest.

The suspected shooters had been planning the attack for several months and had visited Bondi’s waterfront park for reconnaissance two days earlier, according to the police report.
