VANCOUVER: The Public Prosecution Service of Canada (PPSC) has approved 11 counts of criminal charges, including Organized Crime-related charges, against a number of alleged Wolfpack-aligned drug traffickers as a result of a Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of British Columbia (CFSEU-BC) investigation.
In July 2020, CFSEU-BC began an investigation into the alleged drug trafficking activities of a group of alleged Wolfpack drug traffickers operating in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. As a result, a number of suspects were identified and between October 2020 and May 2021, multiple search warrants were executed on residences at various Vancouver locations.
Seized during the investigation was: 7 prohibited and restricted firearms with over one thousand rounds of ammunition; 10 kilograms of fentanyl; 3 kilograms of cocaine; 6 kilograms of methamphetamine; 72 kilograms of cutting agents, including phenacetin and caffeine; $160,000 cash; and 3 vehicles.
Joseph Ebert Charles Lowley (39), Vinod Kanna Aruldevarajan (27), Roger Alfredo Bardales Medina (30), Hemen Hewa Saed (30), Diego Maradona Saed (23), Howjeen Saed (27) – were charged.
Diego Saed, Joseph Lowley and Roger Bardales Medina have not been located and are currently wanted on warrants in relation to their charges. If anyone has any information in connection to the location of Diego Saed, Joseph Lowley or Roger Bardales Medina, please contact your local police or Crime Stoppers.
“This lengthy and complex investigation resulted in significant seizures of potentially deadly drugs and serious charges against those who take advantage of the most vulnerable in our communities,” said Assistant Commissioner Manny Mann, Chief Officer for CFSEU-BC. “Our mandate and ability to investigate anywhere across the Province allows us to target gang members and groups who impact public safety in multiple communities. The Wolfpack has been at the center of violence and drug trafficking for over two decades and we will continue to aggressively pursue them.”
