World in brief: February 28, 2024

AUSTRALIA: Sydney’s Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras organisers agreed today to relax their ban on police marching in their annual parade, on the condition officers do not wear uniforms.

The decision comes a day after Australian police found the bodies of Jesse Baird and Luke Davies, allegedly shot and killed by an ex-boyfriend, Beau Lamarre-Condon, who happens to be a police officer.

Mr Lamarre-Condon admitted to killing the couple and hiding their bodies under rocks and debris on a rural property.
