A soldier accused of espionage has had his interim name suppression extended in a pre-trial court-martial hearing today.
He's facing 17 charges, including four of espionage, two of attempted espionage, and two of possessing an objectionable publication.
The man was arrested in December 2019 and appeared via audio-visual link at the Linton Military Camp today.
Chief Judge Kevin Riordan said his name suppression would be extended until the next hearing when they would hear further matters.
He requested the man's mental health be assessed in relation to the offences.
