31st January 2025 – Investigators of the Saskatchewan RCMP have arrested and charged two individuals from Calgary in a drug trafficking investigation.
On 28th January 2025, the RCMP officer conducted a traffic stop on Highway# 1 and during the search of the vehicle, officers found eight kilograms of fentanyl hidden under the spare tire.
28-year-old Kunwardeep Singh and 26-year-old Swati Narula, both from Calgary have been charged with one count, trafficking, Section 5(1), Controlled Drugs and Substances Act and one count, possession for the purpose of trafficking, Section 5(2), Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.
The accused informed the investigators that they were heading to Regina.
“This is a significant fentanyl seizure. Keep in mind that only a few grains of fentanyl is enough to potentially cause a fatal overdose. We have prevented potentially millions of doses of this dangerous drug from entering our communities,” says Supt. Grant St. Germaine, Officer in Charge of Saskatchewan RCMP Traffic Services. “I hope this is a message to others who choose to transport illicit goods in our province. Our officers are watching out for you.”
