A Queensland-based Australian Federal Police officer who was sacked for breaching a "bonk ban" by sneaking a local woman dubbed a "foxie" into the police barracks for sex while posted in Papua New Guinea, has failed in his bid to get his job back.
Martin Barlow, a senior constable who served in the AFP for nearly 17 years mostly at Cairns airport, most recently as a bomb appraisal officer, was sacked by Assistant AFP Commissioner Peter Crozier on November 13, 2019 for his sexual relationship with a PNG woman while on deployment, in breach of the ban.
