A 46-year-old female employee of the Queensland Police Service has been charged with stalking and computer hacking for allegedly accessing and disseminating confidential information.

The accused is part of the Queensland road policing command and faces one count of stalking and four counts of computer hacking.

It is alleged that the employee sold the information to a domestic violence perpetrator, who then used it to stalk their victim.

This case has underscored ongoing cultural issues within the Queensland Police Service, referencing a past incident of a senior sergeant sharing details of a victim with an abuser.

The employee has been suspended from duty and is expected to appear in court the next day.

The Queensland Police Service has publicly reaffirmed their dedication to transparency and accountability in light of these serious misconduct allegations.
