Aggravated sexual assault is taken very seriously in Saskatchewan, and you could face heavy penalties if convicted. Sexual assault is considered aggravated when it wounds, maims, disfigures or endangers the complainant's life. Prosecutors may not have to prove that you intended to wound, maim or disfigure someone. If the injury could have been foreseen and you took actions aware of the consequences, you can be charged with aggravated sexual assault. Depending on circumstances, such as if weapons were involved and the victim's age, you could face life imprisonment.
