A man who was the subject of a recent high-risk offender warning is back in custody following his release March 1.
Medhani Yohans, 35, has been deemed to be a high-risk offender. He was released March 1 after serving a custodial sentence.
He was arrested Saturday after allegedly breaching a probation order by not reporting to authorities following his release. Yohans was held for a bail hearing and released by the court March 9.
The next morning, Monday, he was re-arrested by Guelph police for allegedly breaching a court order by being close to an address he has been ordered to stay away from. He has been held for a bail hearing scheduled for Thursday.
Yohans has a history of violence, that includes two stranger sexual assaults. Earlier this week he was found sleeping on a bench at the University of Guelph campus and told to leave.
The Guelph Police Service believes that Yohans poses a risk to the community, particularly to women, and are concerned that he may commit similar offences in the future.
