The surviving suspect in the terror attack on Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia, was formally charged Wednesday with 15 counts of murder and committing a terrorist act. Naveed Akram, 24, woke up from a coma but remained hospitalized under police guard for his first court hearing. He did not enter a plea, and his case was paused until April.

Naveed Akram had trained in boxing several months before he and his father allegedly went on a murderous rampage at Bondi Beach, killing 15 innocent people.

Naveed Akram, the surviving suspected shooter in Australia’s Bondi Beach massacre, has been charged with 59 offences, including 15 counts of murder.

Verena, the mother of Naveed Akram, a suspect in the Bondi Beach Hanukkah shooting in Sydney, was shocked to hear of her son's involvement in the shooting, saying he was a "good boy" and the type of son every mother would want.

One of the Bondi Beach mass shooters has woken from a coma, days after he and his father killed 15 people at a Jewish festival. Authorities are investigating potential extremist links and overseas connections.

The Australian Security Intelligence Organization (ASIO) — the country’s FBI — previously investigated Akram in 2019 for possible terror ties.

Before Sajid Akram was granted a gun licence, the domestic intelligence agency ASIO had warned NSW Police that his son, Naveed Akram, had been associating with Islamic extremists.

Major media outlets across the globe have praised the bravery of 43-year-old hero Ahmed al Ahmed, who tackled terrorist Sjid Akram during his murderous rampage.
