Two of the four accused in the Chesham Place weapons investigation appeared in court on Tuesday with the other two set to make appearances on Wednesday.

Jerry Tong, 27 and Feiyang (Astrid) Ji, 21, appeared in court separately via Zoom from the Elgin Middlesex Detention Centre where they remain in custody.

They were each given a new order not to communicate with five more people, in addition to the order already in place preventing them from communicating with the three co-accused.

The court heard that both of their lawyers are still waiting for disclosure on the case from the Crown Attorney’s office.
