On Nov. 14, 2025, Morinville RCMP received a complaint stating that an adult male was conducting sexual acts with a 15-year-old. These offences would have taken place between Sept. 1, 2025, and Nov. 14, 2025. Morinville RCMP General Investigation Section (GIS) took carriage of the investigation.

Investigation revealed that the suspect used Snapchat to lure the victim, then picked them up from school and brought them to his apartment. This happened on several occasions. After a thorough investigation, Morinville RCMP GIS were able to identify and arrest the suspect.

As a result, Jaswindra Nath (34), a resident of Edmonton, was charged with:

• Sexual Interference (x2);

• Child luring;

• Arranging a sexual offence with a child; and

• Obtaining sexual services for considerations from a person under 18.

Nath was brought before a justice of the peace and released on conditions. He is to appear before the Alberta Court of Justice in Edmonton on May 28, 2026.

Morinville RCMP believes there may be other victims out there. Nath has used the aliases “yegnut” and “yegnutn” on Snapchat and often goes by the name “Jash”. A picture has been attached to the release for identification purposes.
