Toronto authorities are on the hunt for a 35-year-old Ontario man, Gabriel Matheka, who stands accused of a serious breach in sexual partners’ trust. Amid suspicions of his HIV positive status, authorities allege Matheka shamefully concealed his health information during an intimate relationship with a woman he met online between 2019 and 2021.
Unfortunately, the encounter between Matheka and the victim wasn’t an isolated incident. The man, a resident of Stoney Creek, Ontario, which lies east of Hamilton, reportedly exhibits a pattern of deliberate behaviour in seeking potential partners via online dating platforms.
With a looming concern over the possibility of other unaware victims, police are urging individuals who may have had sexual contact with Matheka to undergo immediate medical scrutiny. These potential victims are then encouraged to step forward, bringing this critical information to the attention of law enforcement.
Matheka, currently drawing the focus of an ongoing Toronto police investigation, is wanted for aggravated sexual assault. He is described as a height of five foot eight inches, medium build, complete with a shaved head. Unfortunately, at this time, police have yet to offer extensive details regarding the alleged aggravated sexual assault.
Toronto law enforcement is appealing to the public for essential tips or information related to the investigation of this case. If you possess any knowledge that could aid their pursuit, please reach out to the police at 416-808-3200 or to Crime Stoppers, which guarantees anonymity to those who wish to contribute. The safety and physical well-being of potential victims remain the top priority in this growing concern over undisclosed sexual health status. Please remember, transparency and respect should always guide intimate relationships.
