Smuggler Singh Linked to Police Corruption Probe
Gurpreet Singh, accused of cocaine smuggling for alleged kingpin Ryan Wedding, has been moved to a special handling unit in Torontos maximum-security detention center. His lawyer claims the transfer limits access to legal counsel and the outside world. Singh faces extradition to the U.S. on federal drug charges, with prosecutors alleging he helped move over 650 kilograms of cocaine from California to Canada. U.S. authorities describe him as deeply connected to international crime networks, including groups in Ireland and Dubai involved in drugs, guns, and money laundering. Singhs lawyer disputes the transfers reasons, claiming harsh conditions, and denies links to Project South, a Toronto police corruption probe involving Brian Da Costa. The case underscores the overlap between drug rings and police corruption in the region.
