Publisher Description

The shots echoed around Australia and indeed the world as the murder became the first political assassination in this country’s history

Within hours of the murder, the New South Wales Police launched one of the biggest and most intensive homicide investigations that the nation had seen and a prime suspect would emerge with links to the notorious Cabramatta 5T street gang and the very political party that John Newman represented, the Australian Labor Party. It would take seven years, a Coronial Inquest, three Supreme Court trials and a Judicial Inquiry before the murderer, Vietnamese born politician Phuong Canh Ngo, would be sentenced to spend the rest of his life behind bars for this unprecedented crime.
