| Description | Rahim Jaffer, husband of Simcoe-Grey MP Helena Guergis, has been charged with drunk driving and possession of cocaine.
Police stopped Jaffer, a 37-year-old Angus resident, on Sept. 11 on Regional Road 50 in Palgrave. Caledon OPP say he was speeding through the village.
Jaffer will be in Orangeville criminal court on Oct. 19 to answer the charges.
His license was suspended for 90 days.
Neither Jaffer nor Guergis, a junior minister responsible for women's issues, could be immediately reached for comment.
Jaffer was MP for the riding of Edmonton – Strathcona from 1997 until a surprise defeat in last year's election. |
