The estranged wife of John Setka has been charged with conspiracy to murder the Victorian union leader following a police search on Wednesday.

Nine newspapers first reported on Wednesday, and other media confirmed, that the former lawyer Emma Walters has been charged after allegedly attempting to acquire a firearm and making threats to kill a man earlier this month.

A spokesperson for Victoria police confirmed charges had been made.

The alleged target was reportedly Setka, the Victorian secretary of the Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union.

Walters told The Age newspaper that she denied the allegations.

Walters has been released on bail to face Melbourne magistrates court on 5 April.
