Sydney caravan a ‘fake terrorism plot’ and antisemitic attacks a scheme to divert police resources, police allege | New South Wales

Federal police say the caravan discovered in Sydney earlier this year “doesn't cause major casualties” and was a “fake terrorism conspiracy.”

Chrissy Barrett, a deputy commissioner for the Australian Federal Police, said Monday that investigators believe the caravan case was concocted by criminals who wanted to raise fears of personal benefits.

“We are confident that these chip-offs are now being manufactured and that the caravan plot is an elaborate scheme devised by organized criminals from both domestically and offshore,” Barrett said.

“This twisted, selfish crime has terrified Australians. What there is organized crime. [allegedly] It is condemned to be done in the Jewish community and will not go without consequences. ”

AFP deputy commissioner said many criminals working in the “crime gig economy” are accepting money tasks.

NSW Deputy Police Chief David Hudson said Strike Force Pal officials had 11 search warrants on Monday, arresting 14 more as part of an investigation into anti-Semitic attacks across Sydney. None of the people arrested had a direct connection to “caravan work,” he said.

The deputy commissioner said that “organized criminal elements” are behind the attacks to “promote their causes.” Hudson argued that none of the arrested exhibited anti-Semitic ideology.

The same person or person was pulling strings for both anti-Semitic attacks and caravan incidents, and diverted police resources to make it easier to continue police resources, Husson argued.

“Caravan Job” could have been devised as a plan for someone to receive tax cuts by providing information about potential threats, police suggested.

The couple, who was allegedly named a police warrant as part of the caravan investigation, has been previously charged in connection with another arson and graffiti attack in eastern Sydney.

In mid-February, NSW police indicted Scott Marshall, 36, over the incident in Ulara on December 11, when a stolen car appeared on December 11th last year and anti-Israeli graffiti allegedly painted the car, building and sidewalk.

Marshall's partner, 34-year-old Tammy Falgia, was indicted in mid-January in connection with the Ulara incident. She joined a criminal group and was accused of damaging her property.

Marshall was arrested last month at Pakley Prison – where he was remanded and detained on unrelated charges – charged with allegedly joining a criminal group to contribute to criminal activity. Destroy or damage property as an accessory before fact. Drive the vehicle without the owner's consent.

NSW police claim that Marshall and Falluzia had “prepared” the car and jerry cans prior to Ulara's attack.

The head of Strike Force Pal told reporters in mid-February that the “major criminal” suspects behind the December 11 incident had not been arrested.

Neither Faruggia nor Marshall have been charged in connection with Caravan and Guardian Australia.
