  • Suspect in Gurudwara sexual assault identified

Mounties in Surrey say they’ve arrested a 58-year-old man in an ongoing sexual assault investigation involving a 15-year-old girl at a Sikh temple. 

Police say the man works at the Gurudwara Dukh Nivaran temple in Newton and his employer has been advised of the allegations.
