An Australian Federal Police investigation into online child abuse offences has led to additional charges against a 46-year-old man from Perth. Police allege he concealed a camera in a bedroom and recorded a woman undressing.
The man appeared in Perth Magistrates Court on 19 August 2026. He was charged with using a surveillance device to record a private activity, possessing child abuse material and transmitting it.
The AFP said the charges followed a forensic examination of a mobile phone seized during a search warrant at a home in Perth’s south-eastern suburbs in June 2026. The warrant was executed after a referral from the United States National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
