布里斯班地方法院近日就两名被控为克里姆林宫从事间谍活动的俄罗斯籍被告人在羁押期间使用笔记本电脑处理法律材料的权限问题举行听证[1]。副首席治安官Anthony Gett在听证中质询了笔记本电脑的保管、搜查权和最终法律地位等问题[1]。最终，法院同意为Kira Korolev提供笔记本电脑，其丈夫Igor将在稍后获得类似权限[1]。澳大利亚联邦警察代表Dylan Kerr表示，笔记本电脑的具体使用条件将由矫正设施的能力决定[1]。
Kira Korolev曾任澳大利亚陆军信息系统技术员，现被指控告诉丈夫如何登录其工作账户，以向私人邮箱发送国防材料[1]。两人被指控在2023年和2024年期间在布里斯班Everton Park及俄罗斯境内策划实施间谍活动[1]。这对夫妇于2024年被捕，指控在6月升级[1]。他们面临25年至终身监禁的可能[1]。Kira Korolev目前被关押在布里斯班女性矫正中心[1]。
A Brisbane court hearing has examined the conditions under which two Russian nationals accused of espionage can access a laptop while detained. Kira and Igor Korolev faced scrutiny from Deputy Chief Magistrate Anthony Gett over how a computer would be managed, searched, and its legal status during their custody, with the court ultimately approving laptop access for Kira and agreeing to grant similar permissions to Igor at a later date [1].
Kira Korolev, a former Australian Army information systems technician, is accused of advising her husband how to log into her work account and send defence materials to a private email address [1]. The pair are alleged to have participated in a conspiracy to commit espionage in Brisbane's Everton Park and within Russia during 2023 and 2024 [1]. Both were arrested in 2024, and their charges were upgraded in June, exposing them to sentences ranging from 25 years to life imprisonment [1].
During the hearing, Australian Federal Police representative Dylan Kerr indicated that conditions governing laptop use would be determined by the capabilities of the correctional facility [1]. Kira Korolev is currently held at Brisbane's women's correctional centre, while Igor's laptop access approval would follow in due course [1].
