Out-of-sessions, police complex
The Indian man, who said he was attacked and set ablaze by assailants here, had falsely reported the incident for claiming insurance, Australian police alleged.
Jaspreet Singh, Grice Crescent, Essendon, in the city's north, faced an out-of-sessions hearing on Wednesday before a bail justice at St Kilda Road police complex charged with making a false report to police and criminal damage with a view to gaining a financial advantage, the Sky News TV said.
Singh, who is in Australia on his wife's student visa, told police that he was doused with petrol and set alight as he parked his car near his home early on January 8.
Could you please explain to me the emboldened parts?
