The 18-year-old Muslim extremist who was shot dead by police after he stabbed two officers had been researching Prime Minister Tony Abbott's travel plans, it has been reported.
Numen Haider - who was killed outside Endeavour Hills police station in suburban Melbourne on Tuesday evening - was known to police and had been under investigation for his radical views for at least three months.
The ABC reported that Haider had been making inquiries about Mr Abbott's movements, taking particular interest in his plans to travel to Melbourne in coming months.
Mr Abbott was on Wednesday night in New York, where he was due to speak with other world leaders at the United Nations about global security and the terror threat posed by Islamic State.
There are also reports that Haider was in the midst of planning a trip to Iraq and Syria.

In Melbourne, a young man who knew the teenager described him as a calm and gentle person, and said he had never seen any indications that Haider was involved with any radical groups.
Mohamed Ibrahim - who shared a room with the 18-year-old at a Mulsim youth camp last year told the ABC's PM program: 'He was a gentle, soft spoken young boy and when I heard the report yesterday about a man who had been shot - when I actually found out he was Numan - I was absolutely shocked.'
'There were no hints that he was part of a group, there were no signs that he was someone we should be worried about,' Mr Ibrahim said.
The friend also revealed he was stunned at how much the teenager had changed.
'I think him, from going to being an inquisitive young lad to being someone who was drawn towards these kind of ideas, it's something we need to take seriously,' Mr Ibrahim said.
The Herald Sun report that Haider had spent the past few weeks distraught after a recent split from his wife - who had converted to Islam.
'It (the divorce) was a huge factor in his life. They were living apart. He was very upset,' a friend told the website.
The friend added that Haider was also distressed about having his passport cancelled and being monitored by police.
It was revealed on Wednesday that police believe the 18-year-old terror suspect shot dead after he stabbed two police officers was planning to behead them.
Haider had posted threatening messages about security agencies on Facebook page and had recently unfurled an ISIS flag at a local shopping centre.
Fairfax Media is reporting that Haider carried two knives and was planning to use the larger one in a beheading.
He would then drape the officers' bodies in the Islamic State flag and post the pictures online, the report said. A police spokeswoman refused to confirm the allegation.

In a Facebook post, firebrand Islamic preacher Mohammed Junaid Thorne claimed Haider had his passport cancelled without cause and police were at his house before he was shot outside Endeavour Hills police station on Tuesday evening.
'We understand that the local authorities had canceled the passport of this young boy for no reason, keeping him a captive in his own country for no valid purpose.
'We also understand that the police visited or raided his house (not clear yet) as he was hanging out with some friends in Hungry Jacks, just hours before his death,' Thorne wrote on Wednesday afternoon.
Victorian Police refused to confirm the claim that officers had been at the man's home before his death.
The controversial preacher also said that the teenager was 'provoked' and the Australian government has an agenda to create division in the community.
'This boy was not a casualty of an armed heist, nor was his death the result of some drug deal that went wrong, rather he was killed by the same people who are supposed to be protecting this country.

We still ask and wonder, why deadly force was immediately used against a teenager, who was provoked in the first place and forced in to such a situation.'The Abbot (sic) government has succeeded in creating division amongst our community based on religion,' Thorne posted.
He also said the stabbed teenager was a 'wonderful, practicing (sic) young brother' and described incident as 'murder'.
'It is a time of grief for us Muslims,' Thorne told Daily Mail Australia earlier on Wednesday.
According to the Herald Sun, the teenager had been seen handing out brochures at nearby Dandenong Shopping Plaza, trying to convert others to Islam.
He was apparently seen there with four others last Thursday, wearing camouflage pants while holding a black and white flag.

Haider's parents pleaded with their son to stay home the night he was killed, the ABC reported.
They were apparently concerned for his safety, but despite this he went to meet police - who he called when he was outside the station as he did not want to meet them inside.
On Tuesday night, Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius said: 'Our members had no inkling this individual posed a threat to them and as far as we were concerned it was going to be an amicable discussion about that individual's behaviour,'
'It is also clear to us that (the) individual has, without any warning, produced a knife and assailed them with a knife,' he said. 'It's absolutely clear to us our members had no choice but to act in the way they did.'
Victoria Police Commissioner Ken Lay told reporters the AFP officer, aged 43, suffered multiple stab wounds to his face, neck and abdomen. He underwent surgery last night and was in a serious but stable condition in hospital. He has a wife and two children.

Neighbours of the 18-year-old man who shot dead by a Victoria Police officer last night say they are shocked by the incident.
'Nowadays you have to be suspicious about every person, you never really know,' a neighbour, who did not wished to be named, told Daily Mail Australia.
'You never know what's happening across the road.'
He said it was a multicultural neighbourhood.
'We've got a good mix of people around here. There are Greeks here, we've got Italians over there...and some other countries,' the neighbour said.
Islamic Council of Victoria secretary Ghaith Krayem said Haider had been involved with Al-Furqan, an Islamic fundamentalist group raided by police in 2012, but had not had recent contact with them.
