Hunt for vehicles near murder

DETECTIVES have released images of two vehicles of interest in the investigation into the fatal shooting of Mejid Hamzy in Condell Park last year.

About 7.30am on Monday, October 19, emergency services were called to Simmat Avenue at Condell Park, following reports of a shooting. Hamzy, 44, was located nearby with multiple gunshot wounds and despite the efforts of emergency services, died at the scene.
Detectives from the State Crime Command’s Criminal Groups Squad, established Strike Force Courier to investigate the shooting murder.
In conjunction with the investigation, Strike Force Raptor commenced a high-visibility police operation to suppress further acts of violence following recent public place shootings.
As part of ongoing investigations, police have released images of two vehicles of interest.
The first is a grey Toyota Rav 4, which was parked on Simmat Avenue on the morning of the murder.
Two masked men are seen exiting the vehicle prior to the shooting before leaving in the same car shortly after.
Detectives have also identified a black Mercedes Benz with the partial registration EHV as a vehicle of interest.
The car was seen near Simmat Avenue on the morning of the shooting and later driving through the Moorebank area, including along Craig, Metcalfe and Selway Avenues.
CCTV footage shows a masked man driving the car who police believe will be able to assist with their inquiries.
Police are urging anyone with information about the either vehicle and the man driving, to contact Crime Stoppers, 1800 333 000 or nsw.crimestoppers.com.au. Information is treated in strict confidence.
