Father and son terrorists had been armed to the enamel with SIX weapons once they launched their lethal Bondi Beach rampage, killing 15 and injuring dozens extra – as police reveal they had been ALL legally-owned

The father and son terrorists who opened fire onto a crowd of innocent people, killing 15 at Bondi Beach had six guns with them at the scene, police have said.

The older gunman Sajid Akram, 50, was shot dead by police while his son Naveed Akram, 24, suffered critical injuries and remains in hospital under police guard following the horrific shooting at a Jewish Hannukkah celebration on Sunday night.

NSW Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon confirmed the 50-year-old, who is yet to be formally identified, held a gun licence and all firearms registered to him were legally owned. 

Police have since seized all six firearms linked to him which are understood to have been at the scene of the terrifying shooting.

‘He has six firearms licensed to him. We are satisfied that we have six firearms from the scene yesterday, but also as a result of the search warrant at the Campsie address,’ Mr Lanyon said.

‘Ballistics and forensic investigation will determine those six firearms are the six that were licensed to that man, but also they were used in the offence yesterday at Bondi.

‘We will continue to investigate this matter thoroughly.’ 

ASIO has also admitted that one of the shooters was on their radar.

The father and son duo opened fire on innocent people at a Jewish Hannukkah celebration 

‘One of these individuals was known to us, but not in an immediate threat perspective,’ ASIO Director-General Mike Burgess said on Sunday night.

‘So obviously we need to look into what happened.’

The security intelligence organisation has since committed to reviewing the issue and searching for others who might be plotting similar attacks, though its director general stressed there was no indication anyone else in the community had a similar intent.

The shooting has officially been declared a terrorist incident, which will allow ASIO, the Australian Federal Police and its state counterpart to deploy special powers as it investigates the shooting.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese also hinted additional funding for security for the Jewish community – a recommendation of the Special Envoy to Combat Anti-Semitism Jillian Segal – would be considered.

The FBI is assisting Australian agencies.

The two shooters had spent the weekend in a short-stay rental home in Brighton Avenue, Campsie, with police raiding that address and their family home in Bonnyrigg Heights. 

Sixteen people in total so far have been confirmed dead from the shooting, including  gunman Sajid Akram. His son is in a critical condition under police guard in hospital.
