SYDNEY, Feb 28 (Reuters) - Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Friday's arrest of a Western Australian man over an alleged terror plot targeting mosques, police and a parliament building was "deeply shocking".
The 20-year-old from the town of Bindoon about 63 km (39 miles) north of state capital Perth was later charged by police with planning a terrorist act. Police said the man had written a manifesto with plans for a mass casualty event and that he wanted to attack mosques, Western Australia's police headquarters and Parliament House.
