A father who allegedly shook his 10-week-old baby boy to death in Sydney’s west will remain behind bars.
The child died in The Children's Hospital at Westmead on Saturday, having suffered significant brain injuries.
The 24-year-old father, who cannot be identified due to legal reasons, was arrested at Mount Druitt police station on Monday and charged with manslaughter.
Court documents allege he “violently” shook his baby on Friday night, causing critical brain juries and resulting in his death.
The father was mentioned briefly on Tuesday in Mount Druitt Local Court where he did not apply for bail before it was formally refused.
Emergency services were called to a home at Bidwell about 10.15pm on Friday following reports the child was unresponsive.
The baby was first taken to Mount Druitt Hospital then transferred to Westmead in a critical condition where he later died.
A post-mortem examination showed the child died as a result of a significant brain injury, NSW Police said.
The father will return to court on February 12.
