Man charged in alleged assault

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 21 Aug, 2024 12:34 PM
  • Man charged in alleged assault

Police say a man has been charged after an alleged assault last month where the victim reported waking up to a strange man groping her in her home.

Surrey R-C-M-P say they responded to the report at about 3:15 a-m on July 20th and the victim told officers that the suspect ran away when she screamed for help.

A 24-year-old Surrey man, Jatinder Singh, has now been charged with break-and-enter and sexual assault.

Police say he was arrested last week and he's since been released with conditions that include bans on possessing weapons as well as contacting the victim or coming within 50 metres of areas where she lives or works.

Premier David Eby says a planned 10-year, $36 billion expansion of British Columbia's electrical system will open economic opportunities and ensure ample power to supply the province's growing population. It's a 50 per cent increase in capital project investments by BC Hydro, the province's public energy utility, which Eby says will focus on increasing electrification and operations that reduce emissions across the province.
