A Melbourne trainee surgeon was granted bail despite facing approximately 500 charges linked to the secret recording of medical staff in hospital restrooms. Over 4,500 intimate videos were reportedly captured since 2021.
Ryan Cho, released by Justice James Elliott, resides with his parents, who provided a substantial surety for his bail. The court noted Cho surrendered his passport and had no criminal connections to facilitate fleeing the country.
While Cho attained Australian residency in April, his case may lead to deportation if found guilty. Alleged to have recorded hundreds of women, Cho's attorney questions the prosecution's witness interference concerns. Proceedings continue, with no plea entered yet.
