Disturbing details have emerged about a kidnapping and torture case on the Pelican Lake First Nation in northern Saskatchewan.

Francis Hernandez, 47, the manager of a strip mall on the First Nation, is alleged to have taken the law into his own hands after his home was broken into.

According to the Crown, on two separate occasions, in February and March, Hernandez convinced several men to come to the Pelican Lake car wash that he managed.

He believed these men had broken into his home.

In the one case, with help from accomplices, he allegedly overpowered and tied down two young men on a dolly in the car wash.

He pulled down their pants, soaked them with water and then attached battery booster cables to their genitals, the Crown alleges.

It's also alleged the accused took photos and said the victims would get the pictures back when the stolen goods were returned.

The RCMP are still investigating and at least one other man has been charged. Hernandez is scheduled to be back in court later this month for a bail hearing.

The charges include forcible confinement, assault, sexual assault, possessing an obscene image with intent to make public, uttering threats and overcoming resistance to the commission of an indictable offence.
