Three people charged after SAAQ data was allegedly stolen and sold

Three people face criminal charges in Quebec. The SAAQ is Quebec's government auto insurance board. It also handles driver's licences. Police say a former SAAQ employee used her job to get private information about people from a confidential database. They say she sold it to two other people. Quebec's anti-corruption police unit arrested all three. They are charged with breach of trust by a public official and unauthorized use of computers. Breach of trust means misusing a public job. These are charges only. A court has not found them guilty. They will go to court in Montreal on December 17.
