Bondi hero Ahmed Al Ahmed has been charged with assault after allegedly attacking his father.
In a statement, NSW Police said officers received a report of an alleged assault at a home in Bankstown on March 9.
“Officers from Bankstown Police Area Command commenced an investigation,” police said.
“On Wednesday (June 3), a 44-year-old man was served with a Court Attendance Notice for common assault (DV) and stalk/intimidate intend fear physical etc harm (domestic).
7News reports the assault charge relates to allegations he put his father in a headlock.
An apprehended violence order (AVO) has been taken out on his behalf and he is asked to stay 100m away from his father’s place of residence and work.
Ahmed will face Bankstown Local Court on July 29.
The charges against Mr Al Ahmed come days after his two younger brothers faced court.
Earlier in May, his brothers Hozifah and Sameh Al Ahmed faced court after being charged with allegedly using a carriage service to menace/harass/offend their older sibling.
NSW Police alleged the two younger brothers called Mr Al Ahmed and demanded $100,000 each from him.
The brothers have pleaded not guilty to all charges laid against them.
They were granted bail and are due to face court on June 8.
Mr Al Ahmed was dubbed the “Bondi hero” after wrestling a weapon from Sajid Akram during the December shooting which left 15 dead.
In a video that went viral, he was seen grabbing the gun out of the attacker’s hands.
Mr Al Ahmed was later shot multiple times and hospitalised in a critical condition.
A fundraiser launched immediately after the attack, raised $2.6 for his support and recovery which he received when he was still in the hospital.
