Are there more victims?

A Coquitlam piano teacher has been charged with three counts of sexual assault involving former students, and police fear there may be more victims out there.

Dmytro (also known as Dmitri) Kubyshkin was not previously known to police, but he is facing allegations that range from 1998 to 2015.

“Kubyshkin is believed to have been teaching in private homes for more than 20 years. His current company name is DM Piano School,” said Cpl. Michael McLaughlin.

In order to further the investigation, Coquitlam RCMP is releasing a photo of Kubyshkin who is described as a 67-year-old Caucasian man with white/blonde hair, blue eyes and a moustache. He is 5’10” tall and weighs 160 pounds.

Kubyshkin also speaks with a Russian accent.

“If you believe that you, or someone you know, has been a victim of a crime involving Kubyshkin, please call the Coquitlam RCMP non-emergency number at 604-945-1550 and ask for the Investigative Support Team file #2018-1860,” said McLaughlin.
