Lawyers for the gunman accused of carrying out a mass shooting at Australia’s Bondi Beach have asked a court to prevent media outlets from publishing identifying details about his family.
The request was made on Monday at Downing Centre Local Court on behalf of Naveed Akram, 24, who police allege opened fire during a Jewish Hanukkah celebration at Sydney’s Bondi Beach on 14 December, killing 15 people and injuring dozens in what authorities say was Australia’s deadliest terrorist attack.
