Investigators say they have reason to believe there are other potential victims in Montreal and other parts of Quebec.
Béland remains in custody after he appeared at the Montreal courthouse on April 12. His charges include obtaining sexual services for payment of a person under the age of 18, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, sexual interference (under 16 years of age), invitation to sexual touching and violation of conditions.
