Case Of British Navy Members Accused Of Sexually Assaulting Woman Due In Court

The Canadian Press, 30 Jun, 2015 11:36 AM
    HALIFAX — The case of four British sailors charged with sexual assaulting a woman in Halifax is due in court today.
     
    Simon Radford, Joshua Finbow, Craig Stoner and Darren Smalley were in Nova Scotia to play in a hockey tournament with local Armed Forces personnel when they were arrested in April.
     
    The Crown says the members of the British navy participated in a "group sexual assault'' on April 10 at CFB Shearwater, a military base in Halifax.
     
    The four members are out on bail after being transferred from a Halifax military base to one in Alberta.  
     
    A provincial court granted a change in bail conditions last month, allowing them to move to CFB Suffield where there is a British army training unit.
