Text messages obtained by Juno News from an anonymous source suggest that convicted child sex offender Yusuf Ali Talukder was more involved in organizing Scarborough Southwest Liberal candidate Doly Begum’s campaign than her team previously portrayed, and even offered to bring someone he believed to be 15 years old to Begum’s campaign office.
According to a source Juno News agreed to keep anonymous, convicted child-predator and former Islamic school educator Yusuf Ali Talukder led a group chat used to organize events tied to Begum’s campaign, contradicting previous statements from her team and the Liberal party.
The source provided Juno News with several photos and screenshots indicating that Talukder was not just a community supporter who attended public events but also claimed he had direct access to Begum. Screenshots also show Talukder offering unsolicited tutoring and arranging meetings with the campaign, in conversation with someone he believed to be 15 years old, despite his past convictions.
