Sexual assault, according to RCMP, is any intentional, unwanted touching of a sexual nature.
When an adult sexually touches a person under the age of 16 or invites a person under the age of 16 to touch them, it is a criminal offence. Saskatchewan RCMP say they take every report of sexual assault seriously, with investigators specially trained in “trauma-informed’ and ‘survivor centered approaches. ’ “If you think you or someone you know may be a victim, please report it,” RCMP said.
Anyone affected or with information is asked to contact 310-RCMP or anonymously through Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers.
