Two Russian-born Australian citizens have been arrested and charged with espionage offences, accused of accessing national security material to share with authorities in Russia. A 40-year-old woman who is serving as an army private was arrested in Brisbane yesterday morning, along with her 62-year-old husband. The Australian Federal Police and domestic spy agency ASIO allege the woman made a number of undeclared trips to Russia while on leave.
