Published 4 months, 1 week ago
Description
Six years ago, ASIO had the Bondi shooter Naveed Akram under investigation.
So why did the spy agency determine in 2020 that the alleged terrorist didn’t pose a serious threat and was that an intelligence failure?
The spy boss Mike Burgess stands by his agency’s assessment.
But a former spy has told the ABC he met the father and son years ago and had concerns they were radicalised.
Today, Sean Rubinsztein-Dunlop on his Four Corners investigation into what was known about Naveed Akram and his father Sajid before they killed 15 people at Bondi beach.
