A Queensland Joint Counter Terrorism Team investigation has led to charges against Alexander Kent Wadsworth, 48, after officers searched a property in Bowenville near Toowoomba. Authorities allege he uploaded online posts encouraging acts of politically motivated violence in Australia and overseas. He has been charged with using a carriage service to menace, harass or cause offence, an offence carrying a maximum penalty of five years in prison. The matter has been adjourned and will return to court next month.
