Teenagers accused of planning terror attack in Australia



Two teenagers will be charged with planning to carry 
out a terror attack in Sydney, according to police.

The man and woman, both 19, are accused of "conspiracy
 to do an act, or acts in preparation for, or planning, a
 terrorist act or acts", the Australian Federal Police said.

Local media reported the pair are married.

Police said the charge carries a maximum penalty of life
 in prison. The teenagers have been in custody since they 
were arrested early last year. At the time, the man was charged with collecting documents likely to facilitate 
terror acts, while the woman was charged with 
recklessly possessing documents and something
else connected to an attack.

The new charges follow an extensive investigation by
 counter- terrorism police in New South Wales (NSW).

The pair will appear in the NSW Central Local Court 
on Wednesday.
