A police force employee has been accused of three secrecy offences and will next have his matter heard in court in November.
On Monday (16 September), an Australian Federal Police (AFP) spokesperson said an AFP employee had been charged with secrecy-related offences pursuant to 60A of the Australian Federal Police Act 1979.
He has been charged with three counts of divulging prescribed information as an AFP member, and he was scheduled to face the ACT Magistrates Court on Monday.
In the Magistrates Court, the matter was adjourned to 25 November.
The man, who is currently not named for legal reasons, has not been remanded in custody.
