• Cab driver accused of on-the-job sexual assault denied bail
• N.L. taxi driver charged with sexual assault

In May, Jakupaj, 32, was charged with sexually assaulting a woman in Paradise this past March, and with breaking into a home in St. John's in May.

During all three incidents it's alleged he was working as a taxi driver.

Jakupaj does not have a criminal record.

He was slated to have a preliminary hearing begin Wednesday on the original sex assault and break and enter charges.

He has been in custody since his arrest in May.

Jakupaj is supposed to have a bail review on Thursday in Supreme Court in St. John's.
