Indo-Canadian Pleads Guilty to Methamphetamine Trafficking Linked to BC SuperlabPreviousNext

Gaganpreet Singh Randhawa, an Indo-Canadian man arrested in 2024, pleaded guilty to attempting to export 310 kilograms of methamphetamine to the Philippines. His arrest followed the dismantling of a major fentanyl and methamphetamine superlab in Falkland, British Columbia, described by the RCMP as Canada's largest and most sophisticated. Authorities seized large quantities of drugs, precursor chemicals, and 89 firearms during the operation, which targeted a transnational organized crime group linked to the Wolfpack alliance.
