Australian court lifts ban on naming arson suspect
A court today lifted a ban on naming the only person charged with lighting one of Australia’s recent deadly wildfires, and officials urged people not to target the suspect or his family and to let justice take its course.
Brendan Solaluk, aged 39, is facing one count of deadly arson and one of lighting a wildfire in connection to one of hundreds of blazes that swept southern Victoria state on February 7, killing more than 180 people and destroying almost 2,000 homes.
