Sajid died in a shootout with the police.Meanwhile, his son, Naveed, is currently being held in hospital.
According to New South Wales Police, the father and son acted because they were “driven by ISIS ideology.”
On Tuesday (16/12), police said the vehicle used by the perpetrator, registered in the name of Naveed, contained an improvised explosive device as well as two ISIS flags.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the flags showed that “radical deviations from Islam are a real problem” both in Australia and around the world.

, Albanese also believes that the father-daughter duo were indeed inspired by the extremist ideology of ISIS.
According to Albanese, his son was investigated by Australian intelligence agencies for six months “because of his relationship with two people who were later … jailed.”
However, the results of the investigation concluded that Naveed was not proven to have been radicalized at that time.
The 24-year-old man was no longer closely monitored after the investigation ended.Now, authorities are investigating the possibility that he was and became increasingly radicalized after the incident.
Meanwhile, his father, Sajid, was also interviewed in 2019 as part of the investigation.However, he also did not show any signs of radicalism at that time.
Police are now investigating the travel history of the two of them, which took place last month to the Philippines.The police are trying to trace how the two became radicalized.
