Massive drug bust in Canada. A massive drug racket was busted through an operation dubbed 'Project Pelican'. Peel Regional Police announced that nine people, including seven of Indian origin, were arrested. 479 kilograms of cocaine worth about $47.9 million was seized from them.
This is the largest drug bust in Canada's history. Police said that the investigation found that the money obtained through drug trafficking was being used for anti-India activities. Police also said that there are indications that the arrested people are Khalistan sympathizers. About 35 cases have been filed against them.
They are also raising funds for protests and weapons. Intelligence sources indicate that the ISI is funding Khalistani groups in Canada to smuggle high-value Mexican cocaine. The group used truck routes used to transport goods from the United States to Canada for drug trafficking. Police said the group had links to Mexican cartels and distributors based in the United States.
