An Indian national suspected of ties to organized crime has escaped from custody while undergoing a medical assessment at a Calgary hospital, prompting a public alert from Canadian border officials.
Jagdeep Singh, who was being held as an immigration detainee by the Canada Border Services Agency, fled Rockyview General Hospital on the night of November 19, according to a CBSA statement released on Thursday.
Singh is under investigation for alleged involvement in organized crime under Canada’s Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. Details of the specific allegations have not been disclosed.
Authorities released a photo of Singh and are urging anyone with information on his whereabouts to contact 911 immediately, but not to approach or attempt to apprehend him.
“An immigration detainee escaped Rockyview Hospital in Calgary, AB, while undergoing medical assessment. The individual—Jagdeep Singh—is under investigation by the CBSA for suspicion of engaging in organized crime under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act,” the CBSA said in an X post on Thursday.
No further details—such as age, physical description beyond the provided photos, height, weight, specific allegations, or prior criminal history—are provided.
Isn't this sentence weird: "engaging in organized crime under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act"
So the crime is a violation of the Refugee act? Wouldn't it be a normal criminal act?
Omg ... how could something like that happen in Canada???
