(Age) Two fires north-east of Melbourne, that were allegedly deliberately lit, will be scrutinised at a hearing for two brothers accused of attempting a terror act, to determine whether they stand trial.
Ari and Aran Sherani, aged 20 and 19, respectively, are accused of lighting a fire in bush in Humevale on February 18, an act that counter-terrorism investigators allege was an attempt to engage in a terror act.
The brothers, from Epping, were arrested on March 18, the day after Aran Sherani allegedly bought a knife that he intended to use in a terror attack. He is also accused of being a member of Islamic State.
