Mounties said the investigation into Chachula started in April 2014.
He had been working as a general duty constable in Swift Current since 2012.
The former officer’s defence lawyer argued Monday in Swift Current court that the trial should be held in Ontario, not Saskatchewan.
A decision on jurisdiction is expected Tuesday.
