MELFORT | The truck driver accused of being responsible for the tragic collision that decimated the Humboldt Broncos team is due to appear again Tuesday in Melfort, Saskatchewan.
Jaskirat Sidhu faces a total of 29 charges: 16 of dangerous driving causing death and 13 charges of dangerous driving causing injury.
The hearing for the person who was released pending further legal proceedings, on a $ 1,000 bond, is scheduled for 9:30 am local time (11:30 am Montreal time), according to local radio station 650 CKOM.
The 29-year-old Calgary man was arrested last June by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police three months to the day after the tragedy. This arrest was made possible by a long-term investigation to reconstruct the chain of events.
The RCMP relied, among other things, on the 3D reconstruction of the scene, 160 testimonials and 6,000 photos to determine that charges could be laid.
On April 6, 16 people died when the Broncos team bus was hit by a truck trailer at the intersection of Highways 35 and 335 in Saskatchewan.
