A 56-year-old Gold Coast man has been charged with allegedly threatening a federal parliamentarian. He is expected to appear before Southport Magistrates Court on 18 January 2027.
The Australian Federal Police’s National Security Investigations team began its investigation after a government-funded service provider reported an incoming call that allegedly included a threat to kill a federal parliamentarian.
Police executed a search warrant at a home in Robina on 5 November. The man was charged with one count of using a carriage service to make a threat. The offence carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison.
