At the immigration hearing for an accused Indian gangster last week, an Edmonton Police officer attempted to illustrate the scale of the criminal operation that law enforcement was now dealing with.
The hearing concerned Jashandeep Singh, an Indian national who had been photographed joking around with an illegal firearm linked to extortion-related violence in Edmonton.
Singh told the hearing through a Punjabi translator that he had no idea that the man who had given him what he thought was a replica gun, Arshdeep Singh, worked in organized crime. And it was these criminal links that got Arshdeep himself deported under guard in January, with the Canada Border Services Agency declaring him inadmissible due to “membership in a criminal organization linked to extortion, arson, drug trafficking, and firearm offences.”
Remigration now.
