因在12月14日恐怖袭击中英勇制止枪手而获得国际赞誉的Ahmed al Ahmed，周三在班克斯敦地方法院出庭应诉家庭暴力指控。[1]警方已撤销针对他的家庭暴力普通殴打和骚扰指控，这两项指控源于3月发生的一次冲突。[1]
尽管针对al Ahmed本人的指控被撤销，但针对其父亲的家庭暴力保护令将继续有效12个月。[1]此外，他的两位兄长Hozifa al Ahmed（35岁）和Sameh al Ahmed（33岁）因在电话中对其进行言语威胁并涉嫌试图勒索20万美元而被控，两人被禁止靠近al Ahmed或其生活及工作场所100米范围内。[1]al Ahmed因在恐袭中缴获枪手武器而获广泛称赞，随后的筹款活动为其募集超过260万美元，来自近50,000次捐赠。[1]
Ahmed al Ahmed, who gained international recognition for disarming and subduing a gunman during a terror attack at Bondi Beach on December 14, appeared in Bankstown Local Court on Wednesday after facing domestic violence allegations [1]. Police have withdrawn charges of common assault and harassment against him, though a domestic violence order against his father will remain in effect for 12 months [1].
The charges stemmed from an alleged altercation that occurred in March [1]. Separately, al Ahmed's brothers, Hozifa al Ahmed, 35, and Sameh al Ahmed, 33, face allegations of making verbal threats against him over the phone, including an alleged attempted extortion demand for $200,000 [1]. A protection order has been issued prohibiting the brothers from approaching al Ahmed or coming within 100 meters of his residence or workplace [1].
Al Ahmed's actions during the December 14 incident drew widespread acclaim, leading to a crowdfunding campaign that raised more than $2.6 million from nearly 50,000 donations [1].
