Candlelight vigil planned for Pabeek Gaak

Members of Sydney's Sudanese community will hold a candlelight vigil to honour a young man found dead in the city's west.

Pabeek Gaak's battered body was found by passersby behind shops at Mount Druitt late one night last month.

The 23-year-old will be remembered at a ceremony on Tuesday evening.

A teenager has been charged with Mr Gaak's murder and is due back in court in December.
