Police lay sex assault charges against Calgary man who volunteered to help newcomers

BY The Canadian Press, Nov 6, 2024 7:26 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

Police say the accused had been assigned to a newcomer family through a local organization, and they allege he took advantage of the complainant's immigration status to commit the assaults.

Police in Calgary have laid sexual assault charges against a man who volunteered helping newcomers come to Canada. They say that last month an adult complainant came to a police station to report multiple sexual assaults between December 2023 and June 2024.

Police say the accused had been assigned to a newcomer family through a local organization, and they allege he took advantage of the complainant's immigration status to commit the assaults.

Insp. Keith Hurley says in a news release that reporting a crime will not affect anyone's immigration status. An 83-year-old man has been charged with three counts of sexual assault.
