Thousands of people have gathered at Bondi Beach for a public candlelight vigil at Bondi Beach for the six people fatally stabbed at Westfield Bondi Junction eight days ago.
NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb and the commissioner of NSW Ambulance Dominic Morgan also attended, along with leaders of faith groups, representations from surf clubs, schools and local organisations. Paul Inggall of Bondi, a parent of three children, arrived early for the vigil, saying the stabbings had been “heartrending”.He felt for Cauchi’s parents who had been so apologetic about what their son had done. “I wonder what more can be done for parents of young people with mental health problems,” Inggall said.
The national president of AMYA Adnan Qadir announced a blood donation drive, Faraz’s Gift, in honour of Tahir, a refugee to Australia.Qadir said they were attending the vigil to pay respects for all the victims. “ is not just a hero for us but the whole nation. We are here in large numbers to carry on Faraz’s legacy by reflecting on his bravery, courage, and giving strength to our youth that they too must always be ready to serve others and, most importantly, this beautiful country.
