Halton police Milton mississauga sexual assault victims

Halton police are looking for more potential victims in Mississauga after charging a Milton man with sexual assault last month.

The accused operates and was working at Holistic Hijama located on Weston Drive in Milton at the time of the offence. Police were contacted after a woman was sexually assaulted during a recent visit to the business.

In early August, Ehsan Ansari, 58, was arrested and charged with two counts of sexual assault.

In addition to his practice in Milton, investigators have confirmed the accused has previously worked in Mississauga.

Investigators believe there may be additional victims.

Anyone with information, or anyone who has been victimized by the accused is asked to contact the Child Abuse and Sexual Assault Unit at 905-825-4777, ext. 8970.

Tips can also be submitted anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or at the website.

Sexual assault is any touching of another person without their consent where the touching is of a sexual nature, or where the sexual integrity of the victim is violated. A sexual assault can range from unwanted touching to sexual assault involving penetration.

There is no statute of limitation when it comes to reporting a sexual assault. This means that no matter how long ago the sexual assault happened, you can still report it to police for investigation.
