A 70-year-old man in Western Australia faces five charges after allegedly sending racist hate emails to a federal parliamentarian’s office. The Australian Federal Police, investigating since April, say online abuse of public officials won’t be tolerated — even if it’s disguised as anonymity. Arrested but released on bail, he’s scheduled for court in July, with up to five years in prison if convicted. AFP Acting Inspector Fleur Jennings stressed that elected officials deserve protection and that online threats carry serious legal consequences. This case sends a clear message: hate speech targeting public servants will be prosecuted.
