00:00Before Bondi Beach in Sydney turned into the scene of one of the deadliest attacks in modern Australian history,
00:07there were hidden preparations whose details are now coming to light.
00:13Australian police announced the transfer of Navid Akram, the suspect in the Bondi attack,
00:18from a hospital to prison after days of treatment under heavy guard.
00:23The 24-year-old suspect faces a series of serious charges,
00:27including terrorism and the murder of 15 people.
00:33More alarming, however, are revelations by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation,
00:38which reported that Akram did not act alone,
00:41but underwent firearms training in New South Wales with his father prior to carrying out the attack.
00:48After Akram appeared via video link before a court from a Sydney hospital,
00:53a police statement revealed that he and his father threw four improvised explosive devices
00:59at a crowd on Bondi Beach, though none of them detonated.
01:03Investigations are ongoing to determine whether there were support networks
01:08or broader backgrounds behind the attack.
