Ho Ledinh, a 65-year-old Vietnamese lawyer, was shot dead in the street.
The area of Sydney is seen as the "capital of murder" in the new state because of the high number of cases, and residents are steeped in fear of a recent shootout in the streets, eager to improve security.
According to the 2017 report of the New State Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research, there were a total of eight murders in the Canterbury-Bankstown area during the first 12 months to September last year, according to the Australian News Network. However, the overall number of statewide figures is only 60. Compared with other regions, Blacktown5, Bayside1, Central Coast1, Parramatta1, Sutherland Shire1.
The number of local killings has continued to rise since the figures were released. In the weeks since the 2018 New year, the killing of lawyer Ho Ledinh on the street has been the first murder this year.
Less than two years ago, Wally Ahmad was shot dead on the spot in central Pennsylvania after a man in the car near, Condell Park was shot in the head.
Local residents, worried that the area was being abandoned because of danger, called on the goverment to crack down on public security and find ways to improve security in the area.
Nick, a resident, said, "the goverment should be stricter. They spend A $ one hundred and nineteen million nine hundred and ninety nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine on same-sex marriage, but they don't care about the murders." On the day the lawyer was killed, three helicopters were searched in the sky and no one was caught. "
"the residents are very worried, and the local small business is also very cold."
But this is not the first time Canterbury-Binz has "won the title of a murder capital," and the region still has more murders in 2016 than the rest of the new state. On average, people were murdered almost every month that year, with 11 murders, 6 in Pennsylvania and 5 in Canterbury.
However, Joe, a local real estate agency, said, "I've been working here for 27 years and it's safer as long as you don't meddle in your business, respect others, don't stare or look at others. There have also been criminal cases in other areas. "
"the situation in Pennsylvania is special because the minority population here is relatively high."
