The video recording device was found Sunday in the women's showers of HMAS Leeuwin, docked in Cairns, Queensland. A Defence Force member identified as a person of interest is helping military police with inquiries.

“This act is the most despicable betrayal of trust,” said Vice-Admiral Matt Buckley, the Chief of Navy, adding that an audit of bathroom facilities across the fleet is under way.
