The accused was tried on a 5-count indictment involving his former intimate partner, including charges of sexual assault, assault, criminal harassment, intimidation, and breach of probation.
The court applied the W.(D.) test to assess credibility, finding the accused's evidence unreliable and contrived.
While the court acquitted the accused of sexual assault due to reasonable doubt arising from inconsistencies and lack of detail in the complainant's evidence, it convicted him on the remaining counts.
The court found the accused frequently physically assaulted the complainant, engaged in threatening conduct that reasonably caused her fear, and attempted to intimidate her by threatening to call immigration authorities to have her deported.
