    Toronto Man Found Guilty Of Sexual Assault Granted Bail Pending Appeal: Lawyer

    Darpan News Desk, 04 Aug, 2016 10:16 AM
      TORONTO — The lawyer for a Toronto man convicted of sexually assaulting a fellow student at York University says her client has been released on bail.
       
      Last month, Mustafa Ururyar was found guilty of sexually assaulting Mandi Gray while they were both PhD students at York in January 2015.
       
      Gray waived the standard publication ban on her identity as the complainant in a sexual assault case.
       
      Ururyar's lawyer Lisa Bristow says the defence team is appealing the conviction, and made an additional application for Ururyar's release pending the appeal.
       
       
      A judge granted the application Tuesday, and Ururyar was released from custody.
       
      Justice Marvin Zuker had previously revoked Ururyar's bail ahead of the sentencing hearing for the case, which is scheduled for the fall.
