Aiden Pleterski, the self-styled Crypto King accused in Ontario of defrauding investors out of tens of millions of dollars, has pleaded guilty in a case of intimate partner violence.

Court records reviewed by CBC News show Pleterski, 26, pleaded guilty on July 29 to charges of assault, harassment and entering a dwelling to commit an offence.

According to a charge sheet, the charges stem from a series of incidents that occurred at a home in Vaughan over a three-day span in early January. The female victim's name is covered by a court-ordered publication ban.

York Regional Police previously said Pleterski was placed in custody after surrendering himself at a police station. "We can only provide very limited information, [to] protect the victim," Const. James Dickson said at the time.
