Peterborough Police have made another arrest in connection to a human trafficking investigation that led to the arrest of a Toronto man earlier this month.
In late August, police launched an investigation which revealed that from March to August, a Peterborough man allegedly posted online ads advertising a female victim for sex. Police also allege he forced an 18-year-old to have unwanted sexual relations with others for money, which was handed over to the accused.
