A criminal charge of voyeurism against a Brandon police officer will not be going to trial after the Crown entered a stay of proceedings.

The officer was accused of secretly recording images of someone for a sexual purpose.

The Crown stayed the charge in June, about a month before a trial was set to begin in Brandon.

Manitoba's Independent Investigation Unit of Manitoba, which is mandated to investigate all serious incidents involving police officers, filed the charge in May 2020.

Both the IIU and Brandon Police Service said at the time the officer will not be identified to protect the identity of the complainant.
