Bondi Suspects' Mystery Trip: Four Weeks in a Hotel Room

Philippine police have dismissed speculation that two suspects in the Bondi terror attacks traveled for militant training. The father and son, Sajid and Naveed Akram, spent their entire four-week visit inside Davao City. According to police and hotel staff, they rarely left their hotel. When they did, it was only for about an hour at a time. Investigators say the pair never spoke to other guests and received no visitors. This new information comes amid early speculation that the trip was for training with Islamist groups in the region. The police findings now cast doubt on that theory, deepening the mystery of the purpose behind their long stay.
