The accused was arrested Monday after becoming the subject of an undercover police investigation that targeted people involved in the alleged Internet downloading of child pornography.

Brother Adley Lobo, a Franciscan Brother, has been affiliated with both St. Francis Friary in Caledon and St. Lawrence Martyr Church in Toronto.
