Harvishal Kler, 23, and Bakshish Ghai, 22, are charged with conspiracy to import heroin into Canada. A Canada-wide warrant has been issued for Manjit Dhanoa, 31.Two Brampton men are facing charges and police are looking for another in connection with a heroin importation and distribution gang that was smuggling the drug in through Pearson International Airport.The RCMP's Toronto Airport General Investigation Impact Team say they've dealt the ring a blow this week with the arrests.Three men are alleged to be part of a criminal organization that used human couriers to smuggle heroin through the airport and then distribute the drugs to North American markets. Police say the group recruited couriers and arranged for their travel to a number of South Asian countries to pick up heroin for delivery to Canada.Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officers at Pearson were instrumental in the interception of couriers and a total of 12.8 kilograms of heroin was seized."This group stood to make a significant profit at great expense to the health and well being of our citizens" said RCMP Inspector Dean Dickson, officer in charge of the Toronto airport detachment. "It takes the kind of partnerships seen in this investigation to effectively combat criminal enterprise and protect our communities".
