A Meadow Lake landlord is facing sexual assault charges after RCMP followed up on a complaint lodged in October.

The complainant alleged that they had been sexually assaulted by their landlord. Meadow Lake RCMP say another complaint and a former tenant came forward shortly after with a second allegation.

An investigation was initiated and 63-year-old Roger Epp of Meadow Lake was arrested and charged Monday. He is charged with two counts of communicating for the purpose of obtaining sexual services and one charge of sexual assault. Both are criminal code offences.

Police say one of the charges against Epp dates back to an incident in November 2011. The other charges are from a recent incident in October of this year. Epp was released from custody and will appear in Meadow Lake Provincial Court Jan. 16.

The RCMP say they suspect there may be more victims.  Anyone who may have information is asked to contact the Meadow Lake RCMP at 306-236-2570 or Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), through SaskTel at *8477, or by submitting a tip online at www.saskcrimestoppers.com.
