Stronach faces charges from 10 women

Police have charged Magna founder Frank Stronach with sexual assaults dating back to the 1970s.

Stronach, 91, was arrested Wednesday for six additional charges of sexual assault and two historical charges of attempted rape and indecent assault on a female. Through his lawyer, Stronach has denied the allegations against him, saying this week that he will “vigorously defend” himself against “these further untested allegations.”

The new criminal information means Stronach is facing charges from 10 alleged victims, and 13 criminal charges in total. The victims in the court document released Friday are identified only by initials.
