NSW Premier Chris Minns has advised that the state government will hold a special coronial inquiry into Joel Cauchi’s knife attack at Westfield Bondi Junction. The government will allocate up to $18m in extra funding for the inquiry, which amongst other things will examine the police response to the attack. Meanwhile, NSW police will travel to Queensland to talk to Cauchi’s family and friends as they seek to determine his motive for the attack. Minns says the motive might never be known, although he notes that Cauchi seems to have targeted women. Cauchi killed five women and one man, while eight of the 12 people who suffered stab wounds are still in hospital.
