Police later discovered that the group planned to attack Melbourne`s crowd-gathering area and plan to "kill as many people as possible".
Police say one of them is even linked to the terrorists who recently launched the Bourke St attack.
According to the Director-General of the Victoria State Police, the possibility that this group of people pose a threat to the people of Victoria has now been eliminated.
