"One of the alleged Bondi beach shooters visited a firearms shop during his visit to the Philippines, local police have revealed as they investigate what the pair did in the weeks before the mass shooting. Sajid Akram and his son Naveed stayed in a hotel in Davao City for four weeks before returning to Australia on 28 November, only two weeks before they allegedly killed 15 people and wounded dozens of others at a Hanukah celebration in Sydney on Sunday."
"The father has shown interest in firearms. He entered a firearms shop, Rosete said, adding that the store was located in the city. He also referred to CCTV footage of the two in a jog walk that lasted about an hour around the vicinity of the hotel. Rosete said this appeared to be physical conditioning exercises. We are patching together all the information. We are now connecting the dots, Rosete said."
Two men, Sajid Akram, 50, and his son Naveed, 24, stayed in a Davao City hotel for four weeks before returning to Australia on 28 November. Two weeks after their return, a Hanukah celebration in Sydney was attacked, leaving 15 dead and dozens wounded; Sajid was shot dead by police and Naveed faces 59 charges including 15 counts of murder. Philippine police are investigating the pair's movements, contacts, mobile numbers, and activities while in the Philippines. CCTV shows them jogging near the hotel and one of them entered a firearms shop. Authorities are collecting CCTV and intelligence and cooperating with Australia.
