New Westminster, B.C., police officer faces sexual assault charge
NEW WESTMINSTER, B.C. — A police officer in British Columbia has been charged with sexual assault stemming from a 2005 incident in Victoria.
New Westminster police say in a new release one of their officers, Cst. Sukhwinder Dosanjh, was arrested Tuesday after an investigation by the Victoria Police Department.
Police say the incident allegedly happened while Dosanjh was off-duty, but the Office of the Police Complaints Commissioner has been informed of the investigation.
Dosanjh was suspended from duty after being released on bail and the New Westminster police board is considering “the provisions of an unpaid suspension.”
