It is a regular Tuesday morning in sunny suburbia. On a quiet street in north Canberra, residents are heading to work while others prune their hedges.
Nearby, a curious group in hi-vis jackets watch as armed police, canine handlers, and Border Force officials quietly flood the block.
Their target? A house that appears ordinary from the outside with a bright yellow SUV parked on the nature strip and a toddler car seat perched on the front porch.
