MUSIC TEACHER Remy Fernandes is charged for sexual assault. He once taught at a private school in Etobicoke.

A former South Etobicoke private school music teacher has been charged for sexual assault.

The 69-year-old man was arrested on February 3 by Peel Regional Police Special Victims Unit for allegedly sexually assaulting a young person.

Police alleged the suspect was involved as a volunteer with St. Francis Xavier Church, in Mississauga, when the alleged incident occurred.

Peel police said the man currently teaches music lessons from his home. He retired in 2008 after teaching at the Mississauga Private School in Etobicoke, which has since closed.

This investigation remains ongoing and investigators believe there may be additional victims.

Remy Fernandes has been charged with sexual assault and sexual interference. He appeared in Brampton court on February 4.

Anyone with information in relation to this or any other similar incident is asked to contact investigators at the Special Victims Unit at 905-453-2121, extension 3460. Anonymous information can be submitted by calling Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), by visiting www.peelcrimestoppers.ca.
