2021: Peter Nygard: Fashion mogul to be extradited to US

 

Canadian fashion mogul Peter Nygard has agreed to be extradited to the US to face charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.

 

A Winnipeg courtroom on Friday received a consent form, signed in jail by Mr Nygard, agreeing to his removal.

 

The 80-year-old designer faces a nine-count indictment in New York over allegations he drugged and assaulted women and girls as young as 14.

 

He maintains his innocence and has denied all allegations of wrongdoing.

 

His lawyer Brian Greenspan said he consented to the extradition so that he could contest the charges.

 

According to US authorities, the multimillionaire engaged in "a decades-long pattern of criminal conduct involving at least dozens of victims" in the US, Canada and other countries.

 

His December 2020 indictment by US officials in the southern district of New York alleges Mr Nygard used "force, fraud and coercion" to engage in sexual activity with adults and minors.

 

Officials also accused him of using his company's influence and resources to "recruit and maintain" many more victims.
