Sexual Assault Arrest
A 47-year-old Kingston man has been charged with sexual assault after an incident in Peterborough last Tuesday afternoon.
At approximately 7:50pm on December 10, 2024, officers were made aware of an incident that had happened earlier in the afternoon involving a part-time course instructor at Trent University in the Mathematics Department and a student. The incident happened when the student asked for extra help in preparation for an exam. During the meeting, which was off campus at a local business at the request of the part-time course instructor, it involved non-consensual touching.
As a result, an investigation was conducted and on Friday, December 13, 2024, 47-year-old Abdalla Mansur was arrested in Kingston and brought back to Peterborough.
He appeared in Weekend and Statutory Holiday (WASH) court on December 14, 2024.
The Peterborough Police Service takes reports of sexual assault very seriously and is very aware about the importance of a trauma-informed response. In this case, the Peterborough Police Service has concerns that there may be other victims and as such is issuing a media release which includes the suspect’s name.
Anyone with further information is asked to contact Peterborough Police at 705-876-1122 x555 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or www.stopcrimehere.ca
Trent University has been made aware of the situation and is co-operating.
As this matter is now before the courts, there will be no more information released.
