A 71-year-old man has been jailed for arson after claiming his daughter stole his life savings. His grandchild was in the house he torched.
A frail grandfather was captured on CCTV footage hobbling down a Bankstown street at 1.38am, dressed in a hooded tracksuit and holding a bottle.
Last week, Judge Hock sentenced Hraichie to three years in prison with a 15-month non-parole period after he pleaded guilty to damaging a property by fire . Police spoke to Mohummad, who said Carol admitted to taking the money but claimed she only took $95,000. He said she’d returned about $28,000 “but failed to return the rest”.
In Arabic, Hraichie said: “I have left my house and I’ve gone to her house. I’m planning on something. I promise to God I’m going to burn her heart just like she has burnt mine. Yeah, if God is willing.”
