澳大利亚墨尔本（美联社）——一名外科实习医生因涉嫌在澳大利亚多家医院洗手间内偷拍数百名医疗同事，于周五获保释出狱。

根据维多利亚州最高法院引用的警方文件，28岁的瑞安·赵（Ryan Cho）自2021年起，主要在墨尔本三家医院的员工休息室内用手机秘密拍摄了4500段私密视频，或将面临约500项相关指控。

詹姆斯·埃利奥特法官裁定，这名初级医生获释的条件是必须与父母同住。其父母已从新加坡迁居墨尔本，以等待儿子获释。法庭要求其父母缴纳5万澳元（约合3.2万美元）的保证金。

检方指出，这些指控为赵某提供了潜逃动机，且他在被停职后与澳大利亚已无实质关联。哈米尔法官表示，尽管赵某于四月获得澳大利亚永久居留权，但若他被定罪并判处12个月或以上监禁，将面临驱逐出境。

法官指出，赵某已上交其新加坡护照，且无犯罪关系网络协助其离开澳大利亚。

警方指控赵某拍摄了至少460名女性的私密影像。法官指出，目前尚无证据表明赵某曾传播这些影像。

赵某于7月被捕，此前奥斯汀医院卫生间内一个悬挂的网袋中发现一部正在录像的手机。警方指控他还在彼得·麦卡勒姆癌症中心和皇家墨尔本医院的卫生间内进行过偷拍。

其律师朱利安·麦克马洪驳回了检方关于赵某若获释可能干扰证人的担忧。麦克马洪表示，可能会有数百名证人提出类似指控。

麦克马洪表示："此间存在一种观点，即即使我的当事人犯下干扰证人的刑事罪行，也不会影响案件结果。"

赵某最初被指控犯有六项罪名，但周四又新增了127项指控，其中包括未经许可故意录制私密影像。

麦克马洪表示，目前判断这些指控是否会进入庭审阶段为时尚早。赵某尚未提出抗辩。

赵某于2017年以学生身份来到澳大利亚，并在墨尔本莫纳什大学攻读医学专业。

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) A trainee surgeon was released from custody on bail Friday after he was charged with secretly video recording hundreds of medical colleagues in the restrooms of Australian hospitals.

Ryan Cho, 28, will likely face around 500 charges relating to 4,500 intimate videos he secretly recorded with phones mainly in the staff restrooms of three Melbourne hospitals since 2021, police alleged in documents cited in the Victoria state Supreme Court.

Justice James Elliott ruled that the junior doctor be released on condition he live with his parents, who moved from Singapore to Melbourne in anticipation of their sons release. His parents were required to post a 50,000 Australian dollar ($32,000) surety.

The prosecutor argued that the charges presented Cho with an inducement to flee and he had no meaningful ties to Australia after being suspended from his job. While Cho became an Australian permanent resident in April, he would face deportation if he was convicted and sentenced to 12 months or longer in prison, Hammill said.

The judge noted Cho had surrendered his Singapore passport and had no criminal connections to help him leave Australia.

Police allege Cho recorded intimate images of at least 460 women. The judge noted there was no allegation Cho had disseminated those images.

Cho was arrested in July after a phone was found recording from inside a mesh bag hanging in an Austin Hospital restroom. Police allege he also recorded in restrooms in the Peter MacCallum Cancer Center and the Royal Melbourne Hospital.

His lawyer Julian McMahon rejected prosecutors fears that if released, Cho could interfere with witnesses. There were likely to be hundreds of witnesses alleging similar offenses, McMahon said.

Theres a sense here that if my client were to engage in the criminal offense of interfering with witnesses that it wouldnt affect the outcome of the case, McMahon said.

Cho was initially charged with six offenses but another 127 charges were added Thursday, including intentionally recording intimate images without permission.

McMahon said it was too early to tell if the allegations would go to trial. Cho hasnt entered pleas.

Cho came to Australia as a student in 2017 and studied medicine at Melbournes Monash University.
