Overview
- NSW Police raided a south‑west Sydney townhouse and seized military‑grade grenades and a stash of guns from a property that shares a fence with a daycare, and investigators say enquiries are ongoing into the alleged organised‑crime site.
- The proximity of the weapons to a childcare centre has raised local alarm about child and neighbourhood safety and led police to increase searches and forensic checks around nearby homes.
- New evidence shown at an Independent Commission Against Corruption hearing alleges a far‑right faction known as The Reformers tried to undermine an MP, and the commission continues to examine those internal party conduct claims.
- The family of a 12‑year‑old girl killed by a driver reported to be under the influence and who had never held a licence has renewed calls for changes to justice and licensing enforcement in response to what they say are system gaps.
- Separately, the eSafety commissioner has launched Federal Court action against messaging app Telegram for allegedly failing to remove pro‑terror and violent videos, reflecting parallel efforts to hold institutions and platforms to account.
