Police allegedly found 2.5 million files after seizing 120 devices from a Tumbi Umbi home.

The three women are aged between 29 and 31. Police seized 120 electronic devices from a Tumbi Umbi home in December 2025.

The seizure was part of an investigation into an alleged domestic violence incident. Police allegedly found 2.5 million files containing footage of the abuse.

A 39-year-old man was arrested at a facility in Wellington on Monday. The 39-year-old man was refused bail and will face court on Tuesday.
