A Canadian court has found 93-year-old billionaire Frank Stronach, founder of Magna International, guilty of sexual assault and harassment against two women. This was reported by Zamon.uz citing CBC News.
The case was heard in the Ontario Superior Court in Toronto. The court found him guilty on two counts, while acquitting him on three other charges. Stronach has stated that he considers himself innocent.
According to court documents, the incidents date back to the 1970s and 1980s. One of the victims described his inappropriate actions, while another woman stated that instances of harassment occurred.
The judge noted that due to the passage of many years, evaluating the testimonies was difficult, and there was insufficient evidence for some episodes.
For reference, Frank Stronach's wealth was estimated at $1.5 billion in 2018. The final sentence against him is expected to be announced on September 17.
