Experts explain how family radicalization turns relatives into attackers because it is harder to track than online radicalization
Father and son Sajid and Naveed Akram, the main suspects in last weekend’s attack on a Jewish festival at Australia’s Bondi Beach, are far from being the only ones to operate as a family.
Recent examples include brothers Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who bombed the 2013 Boston Marathon, and siblings Cherif and Said Kouachi, who were behind the January 2015 attack on the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.
Another set of brothers, Salah and Brahim Abdeslam, were among the 10 jihadists who rampaged across the French capital in November that year, killing 130.
