New South Wales (NSW) Police Commissioner Karen Webb has told the public that “police will be the source of truth,” not social media and misinformation.

This comes after a 16-year-old teenager was charged with an alleged Commonwealth terrorism offence, following the stabbing of Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel at a Sydney church on April 15.
