Perth Man Accused of Bomb Plot

From the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) :

A Perth man accused of plotting to bomb Israeli diplomatic premises in Sydney and Canberra will stand trial in May next year.

Jack Roche made a brief appearance in the Perth District Court today.

Roche, a Muslim convert, has pleaded not guilty to two conspiracy charges under the Commonwealth Crimes Act.

Full details of the charges have been supressed.

It is alleged he conspired with others to bomb the Israeli consulate in Sydney and the Israeli embassy in Canberra.
