A Singaporean doctor is alleged to have secretly filmed hundreds of women, including doctors and nurses, over a period of five years at three hospitals in Australia. He now faces 910 charges.
Shin Min Daily News earlier reported that Ryan Cho, a 29-year-old Singaporean doctor, secretly recorded colleagues in toilets and shower rooms at three hospitals in Melbourne, Australia, between 2021 and 2025. He even damaged restroom facilities to ensure that victims would enter stalls fitted with recording devices. Local police recovered over ten thousand videos and photos from his electronic devices, with around 460 victims identified. He has since had his medical license revoked and now faces multiple charges.
According to The Straits Times, Ryan Cho made a brief appearance at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Friday (27th). He was dressed in black trousers and a black suit jacket, sitting alone behind his lawyer, with his Singaporean parents absent from the hearing.
The magistrate, Mikitovich, confirmed that several victims and their families were present in court or listening to the proceedings online.
During the 15-minute procedural hearing, Ryan Cho did not speak, only shaking his head when the judge asked if he had any questions.
As Ryan Cho’s new lawyer took over just two weeks ago, the judge agreed to adjourn the case for further review. The reason for the change of lawyer was not addressed in court.
The case has now been postponed until May 22 to give both the prosecution and defense more time to handle the large number of charges and related matters.
