additional charges laid after groping incident

A man at the center of an ongoing sexual assault investigation that began last July has been charged with additional offences.

Mounties previously reported that a woman said she was woken up by a stranger groping her in her home around 3:15 a.m. on July 20. The woman screamed for help, at which point the suspect left.

According to the RCMP, Jatinder Singh was arrested in connection with this incident on Aug. 16. He was charged with break and enter and sexual assault, and released on a number of conditions.

They include having no contact with the victim; not being within 50 metres of where the victim lives, works, attends school, worships, or happens to be; not being within 50 metres of where the alleged incident happened; and not possessing any weapons or knives.

In an update Wednesday, police say Singh was arrested again on Jan 22. He is now also been charged with two counts each of trespassing at night near a dwelling, and secretly observing / recording nudity in a private place.

He was released again last week on multiple conditions, which includes abiding to curfew, and being monitored electronically and by a bail supervisor.
