Police have charged a 31-year-old man with terrorism over the alleged attempted bombing of an Invasion Day protest in Perth, accusing the man of accessing “pro-white” material online and claiming the actions were motivated by “hate and racism”.
In a joint press conference on Thursday, the Western Australian premier, Roger Cook, said it was the first time such charges had been laid in that state, but the incident must be condemned “in the strongest possible terms and we must call this for what it is”.
