Police escorted the former Canadian fashion mogul Peter Nygard on a flight to Toronto, where he is expected to appear in court today to face sexual assault charges, his lawyer says.
Lawyer Jay Prober said that police escorted Nygard when he boarded a flight from Winnipeg to Toronto on Thursday afternoon.
On Oct. 1, Toronto police announced that they were charging Nygard with six counts of sexual assault and three counts of forcible confinement dating back to the late 1980s and mid-2000s.
That same day, he agreed to be extradited to the United States to face one charge of sex trafficking.
Nygard was arrested in Winnipeg last year under the Extradition Act.
