Australian law enforcement authorities today announced that the New South Wales student accused of documenting plans in a notebook to assassinate two senior Australian politicians is the nephew of a Sri Lankan cabinet minister.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The ABC revealed Mohamed Nizamdeen, 25, is related to Sri Lankan MP Faiszer Musthapha, who is the country’s Sports and Local Government Minister.<\/p>\n

The PhD student,, is also the grandson of Jehan Kamer Cassim, the late former chairman of one of Sri Lanka’s biggest banks \u2014 Bank of Ceylon.<\/p>\n

Nizamdeen, who also worked as a UNSW business systems analyst, was arrested at the Kensington campus last Thursday.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

His arrest came after a colleague found a notebook allegedly containing details of plans to kill former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull and his deputy Julie Bishop.<\/p>\n

The alleged list of targets also included the former speaker Bronwyn Bishop, the Sydney Opera House, major train stations and police stations across the harbour city.<\/p>\n

On Friday police told a media conference Nizamdeen appeared to be an Islamic State affiliate.<\/p>\n

Mithra De Alwis, a friend of Nizamdeen’s brother, Kamer, today posted a message on Facebook on Kamer’s behalf, describing Mr Nizamdeen as “an open minded Muslim” who he believed was innocent.<\/p>\n

“He would have had absolutely no reason to engage in such disgusting, hateful crimes to a city, which has been extremely opening to him for the past six years,” he said.<\/p>\n

“He has not been able to communicate with any one of us back home and we are simply broken and deeply affected by this unnecessary turn of events.”<\/p>\n

Plain-clothed detectives seized computers, mobile phones and documents from Nizamdeen’s inner-city apartment at Zetland on Friday before conducting further raids on university grounds.<\/p>\n

Police allege Nizamdeen, who does not have any criminal history in Australia, was operating by himself, but do not believe he was capable of carrying out a terror attack.<\/p>\n

The commerce graduate was one of the faces of UNSW’s Hero Program and had worked as a business systems analyst since 2016, where he helped develop several projects aimed at stopping identity theft.<\/p>\n

While his student visa is due to expire at the end of this month, the Australian Federal Police have applied for a Criminal Justice Stay visa so they can prosecute him in Australia. <\/p>\n
