A court has lifted an order concealing the identity of the man accused of throwing a bomb into a crowd at a Perth Invasion Day rally in an alleged act of terrorism.
Police allege Liam Alexander Hall, 32, tossed what they described as a homemade “fragment bomb” filled with ball bearings and screws into the crowd in the heart of Perth’s CBD on January 26.
Mr Hall is the first person in Western Australia’s history to be charged with a terrorism offence.
