Surrey Police appeal for info on deported foreign national linked to extortion-related activities

SURREY – Police in Surrey say they’re releasing a photo of a foreign national who was deported from Canada in hopes of gathering information about his associates and alleged extortion-related activities while he was in Canada.

According to a statement from the Surrey Police Service, 20-year-old Prabhjot Singh is suspected of being involved in the ongoing extortion crisis in the Lower Mainland. In early 2026, police say Singh was suspected by SPS as being involved in extortion-related criminal activity. Police subsequently arrested Singh and provided information about him to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). As a result of their immigration investigation, Singh was removed from Canada.

SPS says it is releasing this photo of Prabhjot Singh after determining that disclosure is necessary to assist with ongoing police investigations.

“SPS hopes that the public release of this image of Prabhjot Singh prompts additional witnesses, victims, or associates to come forward with relevant information regarding the activities of Prabhjot Singh,” SPS said.
