A 25-year-old man, Setefano Leaaetoa, has been charged with murder and refused bail at Parramatta Court following a stabbing rampage in Merrylands that left 38-year-old Amamuddin Sadar dead and two others critically injured. Security footage shows the alleged attacker approaching victims with a kitchen knife, with the three victims having no prior connection to each other or the attacker. The accused had escaped from a mental health facility 10 days prior while being transferred between hospitals, prompting calls for a review of mental health transfer procedures.
