Police in Guelph, Ont., announced on Monday that they had re-arrested a man they consider to be a high-risk offender, just hours after informing the public that he had been released from custody. On Monday at 2:24 p.m., Guelph Police Service posted to X that Medhani Yohans, 36, had been released from custody in Guelph Provincial Court after pleading guilty to a charge of breaching his probation order. Yohans “was arrested downtown at 2:35 p.m. after he was observed breaching a condition of his latest probation order,” police said in the release. It’s time the Liberal government finally did better.”This is not the first time Guelph police have warned the public about Yohans. Then, last July, police once again noted that Yohans had been released from custody in Guelph.
