Greenway man facing child abuse charges

ACT Police have charged a 67-year-old man with multiple child abuse material offences following a search of his home yesterday.

Police say the search warrant revealed a number of indecent images and videos on the man’s computer and hard drive, which police will allege depict child abuse material.

“A number of devices were seized and will undergo further digital forensic analysis,” ACT Policing said in a statement.

“Police will also allege the Greenway man unsuccessfully attempted to turn off the power to his home during the execution of the warrant to prevent police accessing his computer.”

The man was bailed and is scheduled to appear in court on February 19.

Anyone with information regarding child abuse material is encouraged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers ACT website.
