P.E.I. RCMP says a 70-year-old man was sentenced to five years in jail on four charges of sexual exploitation following a joint investigation with Summerside police.

Maurice Praught was convicted in Charlottetown on Monday.

Police say officers in Summerside began an investigation into historical sexual assaults on a youth in May 2022.

The RCMP says it was determined that some of the offences occurred in their jurisdiction, and the joint investigation was conducted.
