Alleged father and son terrorists Sajid and Naveed Akram scoped out Bondi Beach two days before their terror attack that claimed the lives of 15 people during Jewish Hannukah celebrations, according to a new police statement of facts lodged with the Sydney Downing Centre Local Court.

The pair also filmed themselves practicing shooting in regional New South Wales, while in another video, police allege they sat in front of the ISIS flag, clad with firearms and ammunition, as they described why they believe their plan was justified.
