Vancouver police have scheduled a news conference on Friday to announce charges in “a 2.5-year covert investigation.”<\/p>\n

Speakers will include Vancouver Police Chief Steve Rai along with Supt. Mike Ritchie, who led the investigation.<\/p>\n

CBC News will carry the news conference live at 10 a.m. PT.<\/p>\n

Police are expected to face questions about the arrest of high-profile Vancouver police officer Kal Dosanjh<\/a>, who was arrested on Thursday.<\/p>\n

As CBC News first reported, Dosanjh is facing multiple charges of fraud over $5,000 and theft over $5,000, dating back to 2017.<\/p>\n

According to court documents, some charges relate to alleged fraud and stealing from investors of multiple property development projects, while others allege fraud and theft from the KidsPlay Youth Foundation, a charity that Dosanjh founded in 2015.<\/p>\n

He is also charged with breach of trust.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Dosanjh’s law firm Alliance Lawyers said, “Mr. Dosanjh has committed no crime and is innocent of any wrongdoing.” <\/p>\n

None of the charges have been tested in court.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Listen to this article Estimated 1 minute The audio version of this article is generated by AI-based technology.…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1043319,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2],"tags":[2147,50],"class_list":["post-1043318","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-canada","tag-news"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/117214042057155695","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1043318","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1043318"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1043318\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1043319"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1043318"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1043318"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1043318"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
