VICTORIA — British Columbia Premier David Eby says he will ask the prime minister that the Lawrence Bishnoi gang be declared a terrorist organization in Canada.
Police have said members of the South Asian community are being extorted of cash under threat of death or violence and the India-based gang has been linked to some of those threats.
Eby says it’s an issue of huge concern in B.C., but also in Alberta and Ontario, where gangs from India are operating.
More coming.
