Shortly after the biggest drug lab in Canadian History, in Falkland, BC there was a major Mexican drug cartel bust in Surrey, BC

Three suspects aprehended in the Surrey bust were let go after being questioned, because Crown Council declined to prosecute! 

TRANSCRIPT

Narrator: Global News has learned tucked away in this multi-million dollar Surrey neighborhood is a home, allegedly the headquarters of a criminal syndicate connected to Mexican drug cartels, RCMP issuing a search warrant at the heavily-fortified residence in September.

RMCP Spokesperson: So we have a number of different types of firearms, we have rifles, shotguns.

Narrator: Twenty-three firearms, thousands of rounds of ammunition, bags of illicit drugs, cash, and multiple Mexican passports seized by RCMP federal policing investigators after a three-year-long investigation.

The plot? To import large quantities of cocaine into Canada, say the Mounties.

RMCP Corporal Arash Sayed: This drug operation was disrupted as a result of the arrest of one of their main leaders in the United States over the summer.

Narrator: In July, leaders of the Sinaloa drug cartel were arrested near El Paso, Texas. RCMP not going into detail because of ongoing investigations.

Wednesday’s announcement comes on the heels of what RCMP are calling the largest drug “superlab” bust in Canadian history in Falkland, BC last month.

Back in Surrey, through the steel gate flanked by razor wire, Global News spoke to two individuals who politely declined comment. We’re still waiting to hear from their lawyer.

RCMP say they arrested a Mexican national, along with two others from Surrey who were connected to numerous gangs in BC. All three were released.

No charges have been laid.

Journalist: Is it really successful when the three individuals you’ve arrested have been released?

RMCP Corporal Arash Sayed: That’s something that’s really not up to police. We gather evidence and we recommend charges.

Drug and weapons offenses have been recommended by the Mounties. It is now up to Crown Council to decide on whether charges will be laid.
