Sydney (AFP) – An 18-year-old was sentenced Wednesday to seven years in prison for planning a Mother’s Day attack in Melbourne, the latest of a series of plots in Australia involving teenagers.
The young man, who was 17 when he was arrested by police last year, pleaded guilty to one charge of committing an act, or planning the preparation of an act, of terrorism.
He will be eligible for parole in five years and three months.
