The Lindt Cafe siege is one of Australia’s most infamous crimes. A terrorist took ten customers and eight employees hostage back in December 2014.
The Sydney siege resulted in a 16-hour standoff, ending when officers from the NSW Police Tactical Operations Unit – or the TOU - stormed the cafe.
In this episode of Crime Insiders | Detectives, Brent Sanders sits down with Ben Besant, the police officer who led the police operation storming the cafe.
A warning: this episode contains descriptions of extreme violence and suicidal ideation.
