Vancouver, September 4, 2026: A veteran Punjabi-origin police officer with the Vancouver Police Department (VPD) and head of a charity working with youth, Kulwinder Singh, also known as Kal Dosanjh, has been arrested following a lengthy confidential investigation. He faces multiple charges, including fraud, theft and breach of trust. Police have also arrested his alleged associate, Sarabjit Singh Gill.
According to information available so far, police carried out a search at Dosanjh’s residence near 129 Street and 59 Avenue in Surrey. During the operation, police officers were seen removing several boxes containing documents from the property.
The British Columbia Prosecution Service has confirmed the charges against Dosanjh. The 50-year-old faces a total of nine charges, including four counts of fraud over C$5,000, four counts of theft over C$5,000 and one count of breach of trust by a public officer.
His 51-year-old co-accused, Sarabjit Singh Gill, faces six charges related to fraud and theft.
According to police, the alleged offences took place between December 8, 2017, and July 25, 2025. The incidents are said to be connected to Vancouver, Surrey and other areas of British Columbia.
Dosanjh, who is reportedly originally from a village near Phagwara in Punjab, had served with the Vancouver Police Department for nearly two decades. Alongside his police career, he was associated with the Surrey-based KidsPlay Foundation, an organization focused on keeping young people away from crime and providing them with positive opportunities. He was also known in the local community for his social and charitable work.
Information emerging in connection with the case points to allegations involving a potentially significant investment-related fraud. It is alleged that money was obtained from some individuals by promising them high returns and telling them that their funds would be invested in real estate. However, police have not yet publicly released full official details regarding these allegations.
The Vancouver police chief has so far declined to provide extensive details about the case, saying that more information will be shared at a press conference scheduled for Friday.
Further details from police are expected to shed more light on the alleged financial dealings and the circumstances surrounding the arrests.
The allegations have not been proven in court, and the accused are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
