Charged: Royal Navy sailors Joshua Finbow, 23, (left) and Simon Radford, 31, (right) pictured in uniform and training . Held: Craig Stoner, 24, (left) and Darren Smalley, 35, (right) are being held by military police in Canada . Joshua Finbow, 23, a submarine engineer, Craig Stoner, 24, Simon Radford, 31, and Darren Smalley, 35, were arrested six days later. They were led into Dartmouth Provincial court on Friday partially masking their faces under their hoodies. The men were charged with sexual assault causing bodily harm and group sexual assault. A spokesman for the Canadian military police said the four were at a drinks party at the Shearwater naval base near Halifax on April 10 when the alleged offence took place. The alleged victim, who is a civilian, was taken to hospital and examined by sexual assault nurses. Shearwater is a secure military facility where ID is needed for access. The woman was reportedly invited on to the base to attend a party linked to the ice hockey tournament. Lieutenant Colonel Francis Bolduc, commanding officer of the Canadian Forces National Investigations Service (CFNIS), said: 'This is a disturbing accusation of sexual assault. 'I'm pleased with the full co-operation provided by the British authorities to support the hard work and diligence of the CFNIS team in responding to this matter.' In custody: Joshua Finbow (left) and Simon Radford (right) as they are led from court in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia . Detained: Craig Stoner, 24, (left) and Darren Smalley, 35, (right) are in shackles as they are led away following a brief court appearance in Canada . Military police seized bedding, clothing and electronic devices such as mobile phones, laptops and iPads belonging to the men. They also forensically examined the room the attack is alleged to have taken place in, along with nearby areas. If found guilty, the men could face 14 years in jail. The charges will cause serious embarrassment to senior Royal Navy officers. One source said: 'I expect very high-ups in both the Canadian and British navies are going to be watching this case closely.' Radford – understood to be the team's coach – lives in Gosport, Hampshire, with his wife Yvonne, and their daughter. He had posted on Facebook on April 5 about travelling to Halifax from Heathrow. The day after the alleged attack he said he was at the city's harbour. Naval base: The East Coast Navy base at Halifax, Nova Scotia, near to where the alleged incident occurred . Last night his wife said she had not spoken to him since his arrest. It is understood Finbow, of Stockbridge, Hampshire, also has a partner. The day before the incident, the team had taken part in curling at an ice rink. Then on the day of the alleged attack, the team played against the Canadian Fleet Diving Unit in the morning, followed by the Shearwater over-45s team in the afternoon. Hal Puddifant, Shearwater arena manager, said: 'They seemed like a good group of guys, there were a couple of Canadians on the team. They cancelled some games. I have no idea why.' The four spent the weekend in jail and will appear again before Dartmouth Provincial Court today to determine whether they will receive bail. Crown attorney Scott Morrison said: 'It is a sensitive issue and a very serious charge. 'At this point it's possible they could be released, but the main issue is whether or not they will be allowed to leave Canada.' A Ministry of Defence spokesman said the navy 'takes allegations of this nature very seriously, however as legal proceedings continue it would be inappropriate to comment further'. The team's Facebook page was taken down following the arrests, as were the men's personal Facebook pages. The Royal Navy ice hockey website was taken down 'due to maintenance'.
