Montreal Man Arrested for Human Trafficking in Calgary

0:00A 33-year-old man from Montreal, accused of human trafficking, is now in custody after an arrest in Calgary. Alberta law enforcement response teams announced the takedown of Nelson Benoit Ancion on March 12 with help from local officers. The case started just weeks earlier from a tip to crime stoppers, leading investigators straight to him. He's facing charges for trafficking a person, profiting from sexual services, procuring someone for that purpose, and advertising those services. So far, police have confirmed two victims, but they suspect more out there. The impact hits hard, as these cases often involve girls and women exploited across the country. Investigators face challenges tracking down everyone affected, since suspects like this move around a lot from city to city. Still, they're calling on potential victims to share their stories. Bawai Ancion was released pending trial, with his next court date set for April 10. Police hope more tips will strengthen the case and bring full justice.
