A man arrested at Sydney International Airport has been charged with the murder of a father allegedly shot dead in front of his young son. 9News
Sabbagh, a 40-year-old father, was shot multiple times in the chest while sitting in a car with his son in what police described as a callous, gangland-style killing.Police allege the Fairfield East man did not fire the gun but played an integral role in planning and co-ordination before and after the execution, in Sefton.
He allegedly placed a second getaway car in position a week before the murder and, on the day of Sabbagh's execution, helped ferry the alleged shooters to and from locations. Pham remained in custody at Surry Hills Police Station on Monday when his lawyer Annabel Wurth did not apply for bail during a short mention at Downing Centre Local Court.Bail was formally refused by Magistrate Greg Grogin, who ruled Pham would remain in custody for another eight weeks.
"Well, now he's been placed before the court on a murder charge which we believe is a strong case against him."
