EXTORTION: Indo-Canadian Immigration Consultant Robbed By Two Men With Guns
- May 25, 2024
An Indo-Canadian immigration consultant, who allegedly ignored calls to extort, got a rude surprise when the criminals connected to the extortion boss showed up to his office with big guns and robbed him at gun point. Surrey RCMP said Saturday that on Friday, May 24 at 5:30 pm they received a report of a robbery of a cell phone inside a business located in the 9200-block of 120 Street, Surrey. Frontline officers attended the area and learned that two men had entered a business with what appeared to be firearms. The two men then spoke with one of the employees and stole a cell phone as they walked out. According to DESIBUZZCanada sources, the un-named immigration consultant had faced calls for extortion but he either refused to pay or pick up the phone. The two criminals with the guns who showed up at his office told him why he wasn’t picking up their phone before threatening him to pay up and stealing his phone and leaving.
