The 24 year-old, who's been identified as Naveed Akram, remains under police guard in the hospital, New South Wales police said in a statement on Wednesday. He was shot by authorities during the attack, which Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s office said was inspired by Islamic State.
The charges against Akram also include 40 counts of causing grievous harm with intent to murder. His father, Sajid Akram, 50, was killed by police.
