Cameron Ortis, a former RCMP intelligence official who was found guilty of breaching the country’s secrets act, has been granted bail while his sentence is appealed.
Jon Doody, one of Mr. Ortis’s lawyers, said Friday in an interview that Mr. Ortis is expected to be released some time next week. His client remains at the Joyceville Institution in Kingston.
In February, Mr. Ortis, 51, was sentenced to serve 14 years in prison, which is being appealed by both the Crown and the defence.
