Vancouver Cop Who Runs Surrey Foundation for Kids Denies All Fraud & Theft 'Allegations'
Dosanjh, a 26-year VPD veteran, says he will defend himself as lawyers question whether police should investigate one of their own.
- On Thursday, Vancouver Police Department veteran Kal Dosanjh was arrested and charged with multiple counts of fraud, theft, and breach of trust following a comprehensive two-and-a-half-year covert investigation.
- The investigation began in December 2023 after victims reported criminal activity linked to housing developments involving Dosanjh and business associate Sarabjit Singh Gill. Nineteen people allegedly lost $3 million combined.
- Dosanjh was arrested at a controlled traffic stop in Surrey and released under conditions prohibiting him from acting as a police officer. Police also seized his service weapon.
- Through his lawyer Joven Narwal, Dosanjh denied all allegations and stated he has "complete confidence in my legal counsel and in the Canadian justice system." Narwal raised concerns about the Vancouver Police Department investigating its own member.
- Dosanjh's next court appearance is on September 17 at Vancouver Provincial Court to set a trial date. VPD Chief Steve Rai defended the internal investigation, stating it required "a lot of resources and expertise" only large departments can provide.
