Canadian law enforcement has charged two Indian nationals and issued warrants for 12 others as part of a long-term investigation into a criminal tourism racket. The operation, called Project Jetsetter, uncovered a wide range of organized crime activities, including retail theft, vehicle scams, and insurance fraud.
The investigation, which began in 2019, has resulted in over 1,440 charges and over CA$ 2.61 million in confirmed financial losses in Durham Region of Ontario alone.
Police say the suspects are part of a borderless form of organized crime that impacts the daily lives of Canadians and underscores the need for strong global partnerships.
