Explained simply
Sydney is Australia’s largest city and the capital of New South Wales. Its suburbs include busy urban areas as well as residential neighbourhoods where people may walk locally as part of their daily routine.
In Australia, police investigate suspected crimes and prosecutors bring charges in court. A murder charge is an accusation, and the accused is presumed innocent unless proved guilty; police may also investigate whether a suspect is connected to other incidents.
