OSC abruptly moves to withdraw all charges
OSC abruptly moves to withdraw all chargesThe quasi-criminal trial of former CannTrust Holdings Inc. CEO Peter Aceto and two former directors took a dramatic twist Wednesday when the Ontario Securities Commission abruptly sought leave to withdraw all charges against the men after reaching the conclusion that there was no reasonable prospect of conviction. Lawyers for the defence opposed the motion, arguing for a verdict with no further evidence called, which they say would mean acquittal for the three men.
