Calgary Police Association president Les Kaminski to be charged with perjury

Calgary Police Association president Les Kaminski will be criminally charged with perjury, CBC News has learned.

The charge relates to a 2008 case involving a man who was acquitted in part because a judge did not believe Kaminski was a credible or reliable witness.

Sources who spoke on condition of anonymity told CBC News the Alberta Serious Incident Response Team (ASIRT) has concluded its part of the investigation and handed the case over to Crown prosecutors, who decided to lay the charge.

In an interview with CBC News last week, Kaminski acknowledged he was under criminal investigation but said he was "confident" he would not be charged.
