AFP Deputy Commissioner Krissy Barrett stated they found connections between the accused criminal and a group of friends and colleagues who they think have similar violent extremist beliefs.

Krissy stated that JCTT moved quickly to stop extremists and initiated an investigation into this matter. They want to be very clear and they target extremism, not religion. They did not find any specific target for another violent terror act by suspects.

NSW and AFP officers conducted thirteen search warrants in Bankstown, Prestons, Casula, Lurnea, Rydalmere, Greenacre, Strathfield, Chester Hill, Punchbowl, and Goulburn.

Hence, they arrested seven suspected teens as a result of these raids with the help of these officers. More than 400 AFP and NSW officers participated in these operations to stop any unpleasant day incidents during Anzac Day celebrations.

Deputy Commander David Hudson stated they considered the arrested group to be the subject of their attention. They showed unacceptable risks and threats to the people of NSW. The action they have taken today has lessened any risk of further harm.

Moreover, AFP and NSW Police have advised the public to report any suspicious activity to the national security hotline. It all came in the aftermath of the April 15, 2024 incident when a 16-year-old Muslim boy stabbed three people including Christ Mar Mari Emmanuel.

This incident happened at Christ The Good Shepherd Church in Wakeley on April 15 night. The boy appeared to speak something in Arabic about Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) after that he stabbed Christ Mar Mari Emmanuel six times.

However, Christ Mar Mari survived stabbing attacks due to immediate medical care. Soon, church personnel stopped the boy who suffered wounds while struggling. After the incident, around 600 people gathered outside the church demanding revenge on the boy. However, Christ has forgiven the boy.

Australian police kept the boy in an undisclosed hospital to protect him from people’s rage. They also did not reveal the identity of the boy. The children’s court has charged a teenage offense boy with terrorism. He will face a life sentence if found guilty.

Meanwhile, Defense Lawyer Greg Scragg revealed in court that the attacker boy had a long history of suffering from mental illness.
