On February 21, a visitor’s vehicle was searched by staff, leading to the discovery of “suspected contraband,” a representative informed nine.com.au.

“NSW Police were alerted and carried out an additional investigation. Consequently, the visit was called off,” the spokesperson further stated.

The spokesperson explained that inmates classified under Category AA, which represents the highest security level in New South Wales, are subject to heightened monitoring and more stringent restrictions.

They mentioned that Corrective Services NSW is unable to provide more detailed comments on individual prisoners.

Radio host Ben Fordham from 2GB reported earlier today that the prohibited items found do not qualify as reaching any “extremist threshold.”

The inmate in question, Akram, is categorized as AA, a classification designated for inmates considered high-risk due to charges or convictions related to terrorism.

Any visitors at the supermax prison must undergo a thorough check.

Most visits to the jail involve a clear screen being placed between the inmate and visitor.

Akram is accused of carrying out Australia’s deadliest terror attack on December 14, when 15 people were killed and 40 injured during beachside Hannukah celebrations at Bondi Beach.

Akram is next due in court on April 9 and has not yet entered a plea to the charges.
