“Shortly after the arrest, a search warrant was executed at a nearby home unit, where investigators seized laptops, mobile phones, electronic storage devices, and an extendable baton,” police said in a statement.

The man, who was not named by police, was scheduled to appear in court Tuesday on charges of “using a carriage service for child pornography, using a carriage service for sexual activity with a person under 16 years, and possess prohibited weapon.”

Australian police did not say whether the girl’s mother was facing any charges in Canada, and RCMP did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
