Ottawa optometrist Bassam Aabed was arrested in a john sweep in Vanier last year on a Monday afternoon, and when police searched his briefcase they allegedly found condoms, sex-drive pills, $809, and a 5,000-volt stun gun.

Ottawa police allege that Aabed, 47, would have simply been released in Project Bijoux on Nov. 4, 2014, but he refused to sign conditions to stay clear of Lafontaine Street, let alone not drink rum and coke in his parked black Lincoln SUV. He allegedly refused a breathalyzer and police claim he became belligerent and refused to get out of his SUV.

In documents filed at trial this week, police allege that Aabed, 47, spewed much hatred once shown the back seat of a police cruiser, allegedly saying “F—ing hate these women down here. They deserve what they get. F— them … You should be arresting drug dealers and criminals.”

Then, according to police, he said: “Thank you for ruining my life. F— Canada.”
