A resident of the St-Laurent borough who admitted to sexually abusing six women and two girls over the course of 13 months will probably be deported after Quebec Superior Court rejected his appeal of his 16-month sentence.
… In the appeal, Akra argued that St-Onge did not properly weigh the aggravating factors in his case versus the mitigating factors, including his claim that there was no sexual dimension involved in his crimes. Akra argued he was having difficulty adapting to life in Canada and was working in an environment where he felt he was denigrated.
While determining the sentence, St-Onge noted Akra’s denial that there was a sexual dimension to his crimes and how it contradicted the evidence, including how he told one victim: “You’re so sexy, I want to pleasure you.”
