A teenager accused of preparing a terrorist attack considered schools and then-opposition leader Peter Dutton as targets for pipe bombs filled with nails, a jury has heard.
The teenage boy, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, has pleaded not guilty to acts in preparation for a terrorist attack and is facing trial in Brisbane Supreme Court.
The boy was about to turn 16 when he rode his scooter around Brisbane's suburbs in July 2024 to buy nails, metal pipes and ingredients for explosives, crown prosecutor Sally Flynn told the jury on Tuesday.
