A MAN accused of stabbing another man 11 times in Sydney's west has been refused bail, with a court hearing that CCTV footage showed him chasing his alleged victim.
Nasher Kahwaji, 27, has been charged with causing wounding and grievous bodily harm with intent to murder after he allegedly stabbed a 24-year-old man on a median strip in Bankstown in April last year.
In a bail application on Thursday, the Supreme Court heard that the man sustained 11 stab wounds to the neck, chest and stomach.
Kahwaji's barrister George Thomas said one of the "significant" weaknesses in the crown case was that the alleged victim hasn't made a statement.
A previous statement by the stabbed man's partner claiming that Kahwaji had told her: "We're going to get you next" has also since been retracted, Mr Thomas said.
But Justice Peter Hall said the nature of the alleged offence was of a "very high order".
While there is no CCTV footage of the actual stabbing, which took place around 100 metres outside the Three Swallows Hotel, Justice Hall said Kahwaji and others were captured pursuing the then 24-year-old.
"With the evidence that is before me I'm of the opinion that the crown case should be regarded as a reasonably strong case," he said.
Before refusing bail, Justice Hall also pointed to police concerns that they held fears for the safety of the alleged victim and the crown witness.
