Laval, Que., police are asking for the public’s help after a man was arrested and charged earlier this year in an alleged sexual assault case dating back to 2015.
The police department on Montreal’s north shore issued a statement Tuesday, saying “investigative evidence suggests that other people may have been victims of this man and investigators would like to get in touch with them.”
Nabil Taher, 41, was arrested last March and released with several conditions, according to police. The accused then appeared at the Laval courthouse on charges of sexual assault and robbery in July.

Taher will return to court on Feb. 17, 2023.
