Prime Minister Tony Abbott says intelligence indicates people in Australia were allegedly planning a public beheading to be carried out in the name of militant group Islamic State. Fairfax Media understands police will allege that suspects were planning to snatch and behead a random member of the public, then drape them in the flag of the Islamic State, also known as ISIL. Mr Abbotts comments come as police say they have thwarted a serious act of violence after arresting 15 people and charging one in the wake of counter-terrorism raids across Sydney and Brisbane.
