达尔文一名知名医生因涉嫌持有多达100万份儿童性虐待图像和视频文件被控多项罪名[1]。该医生已被拘留,先前被当地法院拒绝保释,随后向北领地最高法院提起上诉[1]。
警方从该医生的住所搜获超过100万个文件,其中大多数为儿童虐待材料[1]。美国失踪和被剥削儿童全国中心发现该澳大利亚网络用户后,澳大利亚联邦警察启动调查[1]。该医生向警方承认对儿童虐待材料有"长期和根深蒂固的兴趣",相关行为跨度超过十年[1]。
根据辩护律师提议,保释条件包括禁止独自上网、佩戴电子监控装置、避开托儿中心和交出护照[1]。该案将于8月10日返回法庭做出最终保释决定,医生将被拘留至少到该日期[1]。
A prominent doctor in Darwin has been charged with multiple offenses related to accessing and possessing child sexual abuse material [1]. Police recovered more than one million files from his residence, the majority of which consisted of child abuse material [1]. The Australian Federal Police initiated an investigation after the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) identified the Australian internet user [1].
The doctor admitted to police that he held a "long-term and entrenched interest" in child abuse material spanning more than a decade [1]. He has been remanded in custody pending a final bail decision scheduled for August 10 [1]. Defense counsel proposed bail conditions including a prohibition on unsupervised internet access, electronic monitoring, avoidance of childcare centers, and surrender of his passport [1]. The Northern Territory Supreme Court will make the final determination on his release following the lower court's earlier rejection of bail [1].
