The Criminal Court of the Maldives has sentenced a Fiji man to two years imprisonment for sexually assaulting a Canadian woman.
The man identified as Thomas Cunningham Newton was arrested in June 2011 for sexually assaulting a female pilot at the sea plane operator TransMaldivian Airways (TMA) while he was employed as the Chief Engineer at the same company.
TMA’s Managing Director Alsford Edward James declined to comment on the case citing that it is “not a company matter”.
However, he confirmed that Newton’s employment was terminated following the arrest, but the female pilot still works for the company.
