Trudeau's former MP filed a case against the Attorney General of Ontario

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's former MP Raj Grewal has sued the RCMP and Ontario's attorney general for $50-million in damages.

He has filed this case last year in connection with his acquittal by the Ontario Court of the two charges of breach of trust, in which he was charged with abuse of political office.

Grewal was accused of taking money to cover gambling losses to work on immigration files and to have two Brampton-area businessmen join the prime minister's program during Trudeau's 2018 visit to India.

The Ontario Superior Court dismissed both breach of trust charges in March last year. Grewal says that these allegations forced him to live with social stigma and irreparably damaged his budding political career.

Also there was difficulty in obtaining financial activities to purchase commercial and personal property. Grewal has sought $25.6 million in damages from the RCMP.
