A 27-year-old man with dual Russian-Australian citizenship will front court on Friday after being charged with intentional foreign interference.
Counter-intelligence watchers arrested the Victorian resident in southwest Brisbane on Thursday following a Counter Foreign Interference Task Force investigation, the Australian Federal Police said.
The task force, jointly led by the AFP and the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation, investigates serious threats to Australia’s national interests.
The man is scheduled to appear at Brisbane Magistrates Court, with AFP Commissioner Krissy Barrett set to front a press conference on Friday afternoon.
