MONTREAL — Quebec's Public Security Department will probe why a tracking bracelet system deployed in the province to prevent domestic violence suspects from approaching complainants did not work earlier this month in a town south of Montreal.
The department said in a statement last week that on Sept. 9, an offender managed to get close to the victim in a suspected domestic violence case without the alarm triggering in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, south of Montreal.
The department says regular followups are being provided to the victim and corrective measures were quickly put in place to prevent such a situation from recurring. Quebec is the first jurisdiction in Canada to use the system, beginning a rollout in 2022. Between April 1 and July 31 this year, the monitoring centre intervened 155 times after an alert was triggered, with police being called on seven occasions.
