During his ordeal, he was exposed to severe physical torture, including having his teeth forcibly extracted, according to authorities.

Mr. Vuong is being treated at a hospital, and more arrests are likely.

According to New South Wales Police, the kidnapping began in the early hours of last Thursday when a group of males armed with a sledgehammer and a revolver burst into his residence in western Sydney around 05.20 local times.

Repeatedly assaulted and tortured

He was forced into a vehicle and driven away before being “repeatedly assaulted and tortured over a six-day period”, officers said.

The group was “part of a criminal enterprise to extort a large sum of money”, said Detective Supt Joe Doueihi.

Armed police entered a run-down residence in the Belmore area on Tuesday evening, acting on intelligence gleaned after intensive inquiries, and located Mr. Vuong alive but gravely injured.

“He’d been bound, tied up, had his face covered and sustained numerous injuries, and had his teeth forcibly removed”, Det Supt Doueihi said.

He was treated on the spot by paramedics before being brought to the hospital, where he is presently in stable condition, he added.

A 19-year-old guy was arrested on the property, while five others were detained elsewhere in the city, according to police.

Lolo Liavaa and Viliami Siasau, all 19, Valali Tonga, Sunia Siasau, and John Totau Fahamokioa, all 20, and Kiteau Tatafu, 21, have been named as suspects.

Apart from John Totau Fahamokioa, all have been remanded in detention and are scheduled to appear in court in May.

Australian Cardinal George Pell’s funeral sparks protests as mourners gather

February 2, 2023 by Qurat ul Ain Khan Qurat ul Ain

Pell passed away at the age of 81 in a hospital in Rome.
Numerous people attended the funeral.
mourners and protestors clashed in Sydney on Thursday.

At the funeral service for Australian Cardinal George Pell, a former senior Vatican official who was cleared of sexual abuse charges in 2020, mourners and protestors clashed in Sydney on Thursday.

After protest organizers decided to alter their original plan and congregate on a road close to the funeral venue, St Mary’s Cathedral, Australian police officials stated they had dropped their legal effort to ban the gathering. The protest drew hundreds of participants.

Since Pell passed away at the age of 81 in a hospital in Rome last month from heart issues following hip surgery, his body has been lying in state.

Numerous people attended the funeral, including Peter Dutton, the head of the federal opposition, and former prime ministers Tony Abbott and John Howard. A large number of people watched on large screens set up outside the cathedral.

In a eulogy, Abbott praised him as “the finest Catholic Australia has ever produced” and “one of our country’s greatest sons.”

There were a few mourners who raised their rosaries in response to the demonstrators’ slogans, but there was no visible evidence of physical confrontation between the two sides.

On Wednesday, tensions erupted after television footage showed someone on church premises seen removing colorful ribbons protesters had wrapped along the cathedral’s fence.

According to the protesters, the ribbons represented the suffering endured by victims of child sexual assault.

Lifeguards closed Manly and Shelly beaches, where hundreds of people had gathered for the Manly Open Classic, a community event that included Ironman competitions scheduled for Saturday.

“Surf lifesavers and lifeguards removed swimmers from the water, and a large surf carnival was canceled,” the organization said in a statement.

Surf Life Saving said its drones spotted a number of sharks in the area.

Emily Pettersson, a surfer, said she went into the water when she heard the dolphin had been injured.

“[The dolphin’s] fin was mangled, you could see it was falling off, and it also had a bite mark on the side of the body,” Pettersson said, adding that she wasn’t afraid to go in the water herself.

“We’ve had a large shark activity in a nearby area… and we’ve had to pause our entire event… “We’ve been in a holding pattern, but we’ll be canceling the event today,” he said.

Goulding also stated that the organizers will refund the entries and have promised to implement additional protocols to mitigate such risks in future events, such as having a backup location.

Qantas flight successfully lands in Sydney, after a mayday in midair

January 18, 2023 by Qurat ul Ain Khan Qurat ul Ain

Qantas Airlines had engine issues.
Qantas Airlines issued a mid-air mayday notice before landing successfully.
The mayday warning was changed to possible assistance needed (PAN).

SYDNEY: On Wednesday, emergency services rushed out to the Sydney airport to receive an arriving Qantas airline that had engine issues and issued a mid-air mayday notice before landing successfully.

According to a Qantas statement, the flight, designated QF144, was departing from Auckland, New Zealand, with 145 passengers.

According to a reporter on the scene, the Boeing 737-800 airliner landed safely on the runway at Sydney Airport and will now be examined by engineers.

Before the plane landed, the mayday warning was changed to a PAN, or “possible assistance needed,” according to Qantas. Although the airline did not specify the issue, it did state that two hours after takeoff, one of the aircraft’s engines “had a difficulty.”

The statement read, “While in-flight engine shutdowns are rare and would naturally be concerning for our passengers, our pilots are trained to manage them safely and aircraft are designed to fly for an extended period of time on one engine.

A PAN signifies a scenario that “needs attention from air traffic control,” according to Airservices Australia, the government’s aviation regulator.

Since its founding more than 70 years ago, Qantas has maintained a reputation as one of the world’s safest airlines. The plane made a mayday call while flying over the Tasman Sea between Australia and New Zealand, according to NSW Ambulance, who had stated that the service had started its “emergency activation” procedures.

Kyrgios could win any Grand Slam event besides the French Open

December 28, 2022 by Raba Noor

Rafael Nadal believes Australian has “all the tools” to win a Grand Slam.
Nadal will instead compete against Alex de Minaur in a round-robin singles match.
The Australian Open begins at Melbourne Park on January 16.

Following Rafael Nadal’s statement that the Australian had “all the tools” necessary to win a Grand Slam, Nick Kyrgios shocked his teammates by withdrawing from the United Cup on Wednesday, the day before the competition.

Before the new mixed-teams competition in Sydney, Brisbane, and Perth, the volatile star withdrew, depriving fans of a matchup between him and the Spanish legend.

Nadal will instead compete against Alex de Minaur in a round-robin singles match.

Sam Stosur, the other co-captain for Australia, claimed they were unaware of Kyrgios’ departure until just before the scheduled team news conference.

We just learned about it, she said. “We continue on and try our best today.”

Although Kyrgios’ on-court conduct has frequently betrayed his potential, he had a standout year this year, reaching his first Grand Slam final at Wimbledon before falling to Novak Djokovic.

He was also painfully defeated in five sets by Karen Khachanov of Russia in the US Open quarterfinals.

Nadal, who has 22 Grand Slam victories, believed Kyrgios could easily win the United Cup before the Australian withdrew.

His first opportunity of the year will come at the Australian Open, where the Spaniard is the defending champion.

In Sydney, Nadal stated, “I know he doesn’t like to play Roland Garros a lot; that’s the one tournament that looks like he doesn’t like to play that much.”

“He played in the Wimbledon final and, I believe, came quite near to reaching the quarterfinals in New York during the other events.

“He is capable of winning any competition he enters. He possesses the talent and tools necessary to defeat any opponent. Obviously, he can.

Earlier this week, Kyrgios told reporters that he was “training great, loving it, and psychologically feeling good. All that really counts is that.

On January 16, the Australian Open begins at Melbourne Park.
