The man's family has taken 'extreme steps' to ensure he gets treatment, the court heard.

A B.C. man who harassed and threatened a woman repeatedly via text has been given a conditional discharge and two years’ probation.

“He made some quite concerning threats,” Doherty said. “The victim, quite understandably, found the threats to be very frightening.” The prosecutor said when Bahrami was arrested, he didn’t believe there was a problem until he was given a restraining order.“He had been warned several times in the past,” said the Crown lawyer.

Ferguson explained that Bahrami, who immigrated to Canada as a child, has struggled with mental health issues that he is working on with support from his family, a psychiatrist and a psychologist.
