NEW.BRUNSWICK (CBC) - A New Brunswick RCMP officer has been charged with two counts of sexual exploitation while in a position of trust.

The charges stem from alleged incidents four years ago.

Cpl. Al Boulianne, who headed the Codiac detachment's traffic division in the Moncton area, has been suspended with pay since the allegations surfaced last fall.

The case is still under investigation, said Cpl. Sandra Christopher.

"In the meantime, he has been suspended with pay and anything further will have to wait to see the outcome of the charges," Christopher said.

A preliminary hearing date will be set when the case returns to court Aug. 18.
