A Brampton man was arrested Monday in relation to an investigation which began in 2016.
In September of that year, a Guelph woman contacted Guelph police about intimate images which had been posted online without her consent. She had sent the images to a man with whom she had an online relationship, but had never met in person. She learned the photos had been published after other males started contacting her.
The complainant did not wish to proceed with charges at that time, however in early 2018 contacted police again after learning the images had once again been shared. Efforts to locate the subject at the time were not successful and a warrant was taken out for his arrest.
On Monday he was arrested by Canadian Border Service Agency officers after flying into Pearson Airport. A 29-year-old Brampton man is charged with publishing intimate images without consent. He will appear in court March 18.
