Mystery Death in Jail:** A notorious murderer, Aymen Terkmani, who brutally raped and murdered a 16-year-old boy, has been killed in the maximum-security Lithgow correctional centre while serving a long jail sentence. Prison authorities and NSW police are investigating the incident.

Bright Green Substance in Sydney Harbour: Residents in one of Sydney’s most affluent neighbourhoods were shocked to discover a bright green substance leaking into the harbour at Milson Park, Kirribilli, near the city’s central business district. The unplanned occurrence is most likely a fluorescein dye, used as a flow tracer. North Sydney council and Fire and Rescue NSW are working to stop further pollution from entering the bay, and to identify the source of the spill.
