One Nation WA State Leader Rod Caddies has issued a statement after it emerged a former candidate for Secret Harbour has the same name as the man who allegedly attempted to bomb an Invasion Day rally in Perth.
Mr Caddies confirmed accused terrorist Liam Alexander Hall is not the same person as Liam Christopher Hall who ran for One Nation WA at the 2025 state election.
“I have been in contact with Liam the candidate, and he is aware that some people are making the link, and he is monitoring the situation,” Mr Caddies said in a statement.
“We know that some people will jump to conclusions based on Google searches. Our candidate Liam is a fine member of the community and does not deserve any sort of negative attention just because he has the same first and last names as someone else.”

It comes after the suppression order concealing the identity of the accused terrorist was lifted in court on Tuesday amid concerns of misidentification.
Liam Alexander Hall, 32, allegedly threw a homemade bomb filled with ball bearings and screws into a crowd of hundreds at the Invasion Day rally in the Perth CBD on January 26.
It did not detonate.
Hall is the first Western Australian to be charged with engaging in a terrorist act.
