  • 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. 

R-C-M-P say he’s been arrested on conditions not to have contact with the alleged victim and has been told not to be in the presence of anyone under the age of 16 without another adult present. 

Police say no charges have been laid yet and their investigation continues.
