Toronto police officer who pleaded guilty in Project South probe gets conditional discharge

Toronto police officer Elias Mouawad, 25, has received a conditional discharge after pleading guilty to one count of unauthorized use of a computer. The sentencing follows his arrest in connection with Project South, a sweeping police corruption and organized crime probe.

Mouawad was one of several Toronto police officers ensnared in the comprehensive investigation. His guilty plea to the computer misuse charge was entered last month, leading to the recent conditional discharge.
