Sexual assault charges against Saskatchewan priest stayed
MEADOW LAKE, Sask. – A judge has granted a stay of proceedings in a sexual assault case involving a Roman Catholic priest in Saskatchewan.
Father Javier De Los Angeles Cortazar was charged in 2014 after an alleged incident at a cabin near Goodsoil, Sask.

During the second day of Cortazar’s trial this week in Meadow Lake, the complainant refused to answer a defence question about what the accused had said to the man during confession.
