Police foil ‘attack’ on school in Australia
Sydney, (MILLAT ONLINE):Two teenagers have been charged with planning an attack at a school in Australia using guns and explosives in an act police Wednesday alleged was designed to harm “a large number of people”.
The plot targeting the school in South Australia’s Riverland region came to the attention of authorities earlier this month with the two young men arrested soon after.
Detective Superintendent Des Bray said they were accused of planning “an attack at a school involving the use of firearms and explosives which could have led to multiple deaths”.
“Two teenage boys — aged 16 and 18 — are in custody. The younger has been charged with a count of solicit to murder, while the older teenager has been charged with aggravated counts of threatening to kill,” he said.
“There is no evidence to show that any other person was linked with this matter, nor did the two individuals have possession of firearms.”
