(NCA NewsWire) A western Sydney Islamic State supporter who visited the grave of the teenager who shot Curtis Cheng and proclaimed the killing of children in suicide bombings was justified could be released from jail next week.
Lawyers for Radwan Dakkak on Friday urged the NSW Supreme Court to release the 25-year-old immediately when he is sentenced for terrorism offences.
Dakkak will be sentenced by Justice Peter Hamill next Friday having pleaded guilty to two counts of associating with a member of a terrorist organisation.
The Toongabbie man has been in jail since his arrest during dramatic counter-terrorism raids across Sydney in July last year.
But he could walk free next week given the charges carry a maximum penalty of three years in jail.
