Police in Canada are promising a break-through in their long-running investigation into the country’s biggest gold heist after four men were indicted in the US.
More than $20 million worth of gold bars were stolen from an Air Canada cargo depot at Toronto Pearson Airport in April 2023, just minutes after they landed from Switzerland.
Canadian police believe that the men arrested for a cross-border gun-smuggling ring were involved and will announce details at a press conference on Wednesday morning, a year to the day since the theft.
Durante King-Mclean, 25, Prasath Paramalingam, 34, and Archit Grover, 36, all from the Brampton district next to the airport have been arrested, along with Jalisa Edwards, 25, from Fort Lauderdale in Florida.
The 400 kilos of gold ingots along with nearly $2 million in cash were driven away from the airport after the thieves allegedly presented a false waybill to Air Canada staff.
