The alleged incidents are said to have taken place in the 1980s and ’90s.

Robert Charpentier taught both English and music in an English school in the West Island.

He is accused of sexually assaulting two students in his home, near the school and during extracurricular activities.

Montreal police said investigators have reason to believe there could be other alleged victims.
