Eight current and retired Toronto police officers have been charged in an organized crime and corruption investigation.

The sprawling investigation led by York regional police alleges Toronto officers provided personal information used to carry out crimes including shootings, robberies and a murder plot. Investigators allege some officers also trafficked cocaine and accepted bribes to support illegal cannabis dispensaries.

Toronto police Chief Myron Demkiw says the accused officers have been suspended and he will seek to suspend at least four of them without pay, in line with policing laws.

Here are the officers accused in the investigation.
