A man has been charged with the alleged murder of a 24-year-old outside his south-west Sydney home.

Marvin Oraiha was shot dead in the driveway of his Elizabeth Hills home about 4pm on 22 May.

A short time later, two cars linked to the crime were found burnt out at nearby Green Valley and Bonnyrigg Heights.

Strike Force Hackenburg detectives last month released CCTV of two men they wanted to question as well as footage of three vehicles as part of an appeal for public information.

NSW police said strike force detectives – with help from raptor squad officers – had raided a home at Roselands at dawn on Wednesday and arrested a 22-year-old man.

He was charged with murder, car theft, possession of an unauthorised pistol and taking part in a criminal group. He was refused bail and was due to appear before Bankstown local court on Thursday.

Police conducted six other raids at Edensor Park, Green Valley, Yagoona, Liverpool, Merrylands and Guildford.

They said they had seized ammunition, an extendable baton, gel-blasters, a Taser, cloned registration plates, substances believed to be prohibited drugs, clothing, more than $3,000 in cash and mobile phones relevant to their investigation.
