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. 

He’s next to appear in court on Nov. 27.
