Brandon Teixeira Convicted of First-Degree Murder In Surrey, B.C., Shooting

Brandon Teixeira was paid $160,000 to kill Nicholas Khabra, believed to have set him up in a prior drive-by shooting, according to court testimony.

  • The B.C. Supreme Court found Brandon Teixeira guilty of first-degree murder for the 2017 shooting death of Nicholas Khabra in Surrey.
  • Teixeira was charged in September 2018 but fled to the U.S., where police arrested him in late 2019 before extraditing him back to Canada in April 2020.
  • The conviction followed a complex joint investigation by CFSEU-BC and IHIT into an organized crime group linked to multiple homicides, including Khabra's killing.
  • Mandeep Mooker of the homicide team called it a 'complex joint investigation' and praised the BC Prosecution Service for its outstanding work on the case.
  • The verdict implies law enforcement’s ongoing focus on organized crime-related homicides and prepares for sentencing expected in September 2025.
