Aid worker's legal team intends to appeal, calling the verdict 'a miscarriage of justice'

After spending more than a year at an overcrowded jail near Kathmandu, prominent Canadian aid worker Peter Dalglish has been found guilty of sexually assaulting children in Nepal.

His Canadian lawyer, Nader Hasan, said Dalglish's family and friends are devastated by the verdict and that his legal team plans to file an appeal.

Hasan said there is no clear timeline when the judge will issue a written verdict or when sentencing will take place — both of which have to happen before he can file an appeal.

Dalglish, 61, could be facing a prison sentence of 10 years or longer, Hasan said.

Arrest in Nepal

Dalglish was taken into custody at gunpoint in April 2018 at his home near Kathmandu by members of the Central Investigation Bureau of the Nepal Police. He was charged with sexually assaulting two boys, ages 11 and 14, who police say were in the home at the time of his arrest.

Investigators have previously said they followed Dalglish for weeks after they received information about alleged abuses.

Dalglish has consistently denied the charges.

"He wasn't someone who was a tourist there," said Hasan. "He lived there and spent years doing humanitarian work in Nepal. He wasn't in some seedy hotel luring children. He was part of the village, was well liked and a mentor to many young people and adults in that village."

A slew of abuse allegations has been levelled against aid workers in Nepal in recent years, and authorities have arrested several foreigners in an attempt to deal with rampant child abuse problems.

Dalglish was denied bail last summer on the grounds he was a flight risk. He has since been held at the squalid, overcrowded Dhulikhel jail, located on the outskirts of Kathmandu.

Advocate for the eradication of child poverty

Dalglish, who born in London, Ont., and earned a law degree from Dalhousie University, has spent decades working in Africa and Asia to combat child poverty.

In the late 1980s, he co-founded Street Kids International, a Canadian NGO focused on delivering programs to help improve the living conditions for vulnerable kids in developing countries.
