A 57-year-old Western Australian man will face court today on 310 charges related to child sex abuse, reports China’s Xinhua news agency.

The Australian Federal Police (AFP) said in a statement that they discovered close to 26,000 videos and images of exploitations and obscene materials, including a footage of sexual penetration with a child under 13 years during a raid at the man’s home earlier this year.

AFP manager of victim-based crime, Commander Lesa Gale, urged parents and carers to have appropriate conversations with their children about personal safety and what the children should do if they find themselves in any situation that makes them feel uncomfortable.

The unnamed man will be charged at the Perth Magistrate’s Court today.
