Bondi shooting suspect Naveed Akram charged with 15 counts of murder | BBC News

Naveed Akram, the surviving suspect in the mass shooting at Bondi Beach in Sydney, has been charged with 59 offences – including 15 counts of murder and one of committing a terrorist act, the New South Wales police said.

His father Sajid Akram, 50, was killed in an exchange of fire with police at the scene.

Fifteen people were killed and dozens of others were injured in the attack, which targeted Australia’s Jewish community at an event celebrating the first night of Hanukkah.

It was the country’s deadliest shooting since 1996.
