Australian police announced on Wednesday that they have successfully infiltrated Ghost, an encrypted global communications app designed for criminal use. This operation has resulted in the arrest of 38 suspects across four states in Australia, with additional arrests made in Canada, Sweden, Ireland, and Italy.
The alleged administrator of the app, a 32-year-old individual, appeared in a Sydney court facing charges related to supporting a criminal organization and benefiting from proceeds of crime. The administrator did not enter pleas and will remain in custody until the case returns to court in November.
