Prominent Vancouver Cop Facing Fraud Charges

VANCOUVER - Vancouver police say a high-profile officer who was arrested this week allegedly defrauded at least 19 victims of a total of about $3 million.

Kal Dosanjh, a 26-year veteran of the Vancouver Police Department (VPD) and the CEO of the KidsPlay Youth Foundation, is facing four counts of fraud over $5,000, four counts of theft over $5,000 and one count of breach of trust dating back to 2017.

Vancouver police Chief Steve Rai said Dosanjh has been suspended, and that he has recommended that the suspension be served without pay. He added that investigators believe there may be additional victims who have yet to speak to police.

Rai said police began a large-scale, covert investigation in December 2023 after multiple alleged victims came forward.

Sarabjit Singh Gill, who police describe as Dosanjh's business partner, is listed as a co-defendant in those charges.
