They just said on the news that the car wasn't stolen at all. She just forgot where she parked it.

A man wanted in Lebanon for allegedly fundraising for ISIS has been charged with attempted murder in Sydney over accusations he shot at a group of home invaders.

Police say a group of armed men jumped over the fence of Revesby man Adnan Baradaaji's home in November last year and threatened him.

Mr Baradaaji, 35, then allegedly went into the house and picked up a gun, which police say he then used to fire shots at the alleged intruders who fled.

"A series of shots were fired between the two groups," Detective Chief Inspector Darren Sly said at Bankstown Police Station on Thursday.

Members of the public called police when they heard the shots.

After an investigation of several months, officers arrested Mr Baradaaji on Wednesday and charged him with shooting with intent to murder, firing a gun near a public place, possessing an unauthorised firearm, possessing a prohibited weapon without a licence and hindering the discovery of evidence.

He briefly appeared in Bankstown Local Court where bail was formally refused. He will appear in the same court in March.

"We can't exactly say what the motive was. The [alleged] use of firearms ... just can't be tolerated in our community," Chief Inspector Sly said.

Lebanon issued an arrest warrant for Mr Baradaaji in absentia in 2015 on allegations of fundraising for jihadists, the ABC reported.

Following Mr Baradaaji's arrest on Wednesday, investigators arrested Fayez Kannan, Walid Obeid and Bellal Ammouri on Thursday morning.

All three were charged with being accessories after the fact of shooting with intent to murder, hindering the discovery of evidence and concealing serious indictable offence.

They appeared in Bankstown Local Court on Thursday and were refused bail.

None of the alleged home invaders have been arrested yet, with police sources saying the four men had not been forthcoming about why they could be targets of a shooting.

If a warrant was issued for him in Lebanon 5 years ago for fundraising for ISIS what the hell is he doing running around un-monitored in Sydney?

Oh no...don't say that....according to the resident moron, he needs help..he needs sympathy and rehabilitation, not
punishment...give him a chance to mend his wicked ways....
The resident moron has already pointed out on another thread that arsonists need help, not punishment...
Well surely that rehabilitating attitude should apply to all criminals...just give them another chance...
Of course, the resident moron wont debate the subject of punishment...he will just load up with some
absolute crap and refuse point blank to enter into a debate on punishment versus rehabilitation.....
Gutless...just plain gutless......

An Australian mother who lost three children in a drink-driving crash has forgiven the alleged killer.

Leila Geagea Abdallah lost Antony, 13, Angelina, 12 and Sienna Abdallah, eight on Saturday night after a drunk driver ploughed through a group of seven children walking along the footpath.

The three siblings' cousin, Veronique Sakr, 11 also died in the crash.

The accused driver, 29-year-old builder Samuel William Davidson, was reportedly three times over the legal drink-driving limit when he mounted a kerb in his ute.

On Monday, Abdallah returned to the crash site, in Sydney, Oatlands where teddy bears and flowers now lie in remembrance of her children.

Surrounded by friends, Abdallah spoke out saying she will not hate the man who allegedly killed her children.

"The guy, I know he was [allegedly] drunk, driving on this street. Right now I can't hate him. I don't want to see him, but I don't hate him," she told news.com.au reporters.

"I think in my heart, I forgive him, but I want the court to be fair. It's all about fairness. I'm not going to hate him, because that's not who we are."

I don't believe in hate as it's a destructive and negative emotion that eats haters from the inside out but she's a better person than I am I guess because forgiveness would not on my agenda. Especially so soon after the tragedy.
