Overview
- NSW Police say Sajid Akram was shot dead at the scene and his son, Naveed, was shot and remains in hospital in critical condition, with reports he is showing signs of recovery.
- Verena, Naveed’s mother, recounted a call hours before the attack in which he said he had been swimming and scuba diving and told her, “We are going to eat now.”
- Naveed’s mother described him as a “good boy” who did not drink or smoke and said she did not recognize him in images published from the scene.
- CCTV reported by local media shows Sajid followed by Naveed leaving 103 Brighton Avenue in Campsie at about 5:15 p.m. on Sunday, shortly after the call.
- Police have maintained restrictions at the Akram family home in Bonnyrigg as investigators review evidence, and authorities have not confirmed a motive.
