Koneak was arrested by the Kativik Regional Police on April 27 in an apparently intoxicated state.
His wife was medevac’ed to the South for treatment for a dislocated jaw.
The couple’s children were placed in the care of social service workers, according to an article in Nunatsiaq News.
Koneak was Makivik’s Second Vice-President until losing the job in elections earlier this year.
