A HAMPTON PARK teenager charged in relation to an alleged Anzac Day terror plot has been denied bail.
Magistrate Suzie Cameron remanded 18-year-old Harun Causevic in custody on Friday.
Its alleged Causevic and his co-accused Sevdet Besim, also 18, plotted to run down a police officer with a car, behead him and use his gun to shoot a crowd of people at an Anzac Day service in Melbourne’s south-east.
Causevic and Besim are set to appear back in court in August.
The decision came on the same day police raided several properties in Melbourne’s northern suburbs in relation to a counter-terrorism operation last week.
A 17-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was arrested following the raids and has been remanded in custody after a brief appearance in the Children’s Court.
It is alleged the teen had been making explosive devices and planned to use them over the Mother’s Day weekend.
