The accused was convicted of multiple offences involving the sexual exploitation and trafficking of a minor for the purposes of prostitution.
The offences occurred between August 2015 and August 2017 and included recruitment of a person under 18 for exploitation, receiving material and financial benefits from sexual services, procuring a minor to offer sexual services, advertising sexual services, two counts of sexual assault, criminal harassment, and mischief to property.
The court imposed a global sentence of 7 years and 5 months, reflecting the serious nature of the exploitation, the vulnerability of the victim, the use of violence and coercion, and the extended duration of the criminal conduct.
