A Risdon man is facing multiple serious family violence charges after a coordinated police operation across several locations in southern Tasmania.
The 43-year-old was charged on Wednesday evening following searches conducted by Tasmania Police’s South East Criminal Investigation Branch.
The charges include emotional abuse (coercive control), systems abuse and numerous family violence order breaches.
Several exhibits were seized during Wednesday’s coordinated searches at multiple locations, though police have not released specific details about the evidence collected.
“Supporting and protecting victims of crime is a priority for Tasmania Police, and this matter remains under active investigation,” a police spokesperson said.
The man is due to appear in the Hobart Magistrates Court on December 5.
Tasmania Police have reminded the public that emergency assistance for family violence situations is available by calling Triple Zero (000), while non-urgent incidents can be reported via the Tasmania Police Assistance Line on 131 444.
For those seeking advice or support without initially reporting to police, the Family Violence Counselling Support Service can be contacted on 1800 608 122.
