Ahmed Al Ahmed was praised for disarming a terrorist who killed 15 people and injured dozens in Sydney last December. Now, he is facing legal trouble – and has been handed one strict order as charges are brought against him.
Ahmed Al Ahmed was hailed as a hero after he took action during a terrifying terror attack targeting a Jewish event in December.
“When I do save the people, I do it from the heart because it was a nice day, everyone was enjoying, celebrating with their kids,” Ahmed Al Ahmed said from the hospital bed, according to reports.
“Woman, man, teenager, all of this, everyone was happy and they deserve to enjoy and it’s their right. This country, best country in the world, but we’re not going to stand and keep watching, enough is enough.”
Ahmed Al Ahmed has been charged with assault
Following an alleged altercation at a property in Bankstown, in western Sydney, the hero who saved hundreds has now been charged with assaulting his own father. According to The Guardian, he is accused of putting his father in a headlock.
New South Wales police confirmed on Wednesday that he was charged with common assault and “stalk or intimidate.”
“Officers from Bankstown Police Area Command commenced an investigation,” police said in a statement. “On Wednesday (June 3), a 44-year-old man was served with a Court Attendance Notice for common assault (DV) and stalk/intimidate intend fear physical etc harm (domestic).”
“It’s not true at all”
An Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) has also been issued against him. The order bars him from assaulting, stalking, harassing, or contacting his father, according to VT. He is also prohibited from coming within 330 feet of where his father lives or works.
Al Ahmed has dismissed the allegations as “fake information.”
“It’s fake information … it’s not true at all,” he told ABC, per the Daily Telegraph. “I don’t have any information at all.”
Al Ahmed is set to appear in Bankstown Local Court on July 29.
