Husband terrorist, son sleeper cell of ISIS, 6-6 guns in the house and mother unknown, know the inside story of Sydney shooting

How Bondi Beach Shooting Planned: A father and son have been confirmed responsible for opening fire on people celebrating Hanukkah in the Jewish community on Sydney’s Bondi Beach. According to the police, the attackers were 50-year-old Sajid Akram and his 24-year-old son Navid Akram, of whom Sajid Akram was killed by the police on the spot. When Sajid’s wife present in his house was talked to about this, it came to light that she did not know anything about it.

Sajid came to Australia in 1998 and married a woman named Verena. In her eyes, her son Navid Akram was like every mother dreams of having a son. However, the face the world saw was different from this. These people lived in a 3 bedroom flat purchased in the year 2024 and it was there that the entire plan for the Sydney attack was made. The surprising thing is that Verena could not know anything. He did not even know whether his son, who was killing people indiscriminately, knew how to use a gun or not.

Did Sajid come from Pakistan to do this?

Australian Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke said that Sajid Akram came to Australia in 1998 on a student visa. In 2001, his visa was changed to partner visa and since then he was living on resident return visa. Navid’s mother Verena told that her last conversation with her son was on Sunday morning, a few hours before the shooting, in which he told that he was swimming and scuba diving with his father in Jervis Bay. This was the same time when both were killing people. Verena says that she could not identify her son from the photographs of the incident site and she is not sure that he could be involved in extremist activity.

6-6 guns in the house, sleeper cell of ISIS

According to the information received from the police, there were 6 licensed guns in his house, which Sajid used for hunting. His wife told that her son did not even know how to use a gun, but looking at the way he was using the gun, it seemed like a trend. Verena says that Navid did not have any weapon, he did not go out much, neither drank alcohol nor smoked. Earlier he used to work as a bricklayer but after losing his job, he used to stay at home. He was not very active on the internet either. However, the police also found ISIS flags at the incident site in Bondi Beach, after which it is being speculated that both of them had taken an oath and this was a planned massacre.

The attacker was on the agency’s radar

Australia’s intelligence agency ASIO was suspicious of Navid’s activities six years ago and he was on the agency’s radar. They suspected Naveed to be associated with the ISIS network active in Sydney. According to ABC News, after the arrest of Islamic State terrorist Isaac El Matari in 2019, he was being monitored. Despite this, Navid lived with his parents, 22 year old sister and 20 year old brother. Where no one except his father knew about it.
