Indian Grandfather to Be Deported From Canada for Harassing Teen Girls: What We Know
Jagjit Singh, convicted of criminal harassment of two teenage girls near a Sarnia school, faces deportation, a lifetime ban, and three years probation limiting contact with minors.
- On September 19, a Sarnia court convicted Jagjit Singh, a 51-year-old Indian national on a six-month visitor visa, of criminal harassment and ordered his deportation with a ban from Canada.
- Between September 8 and 11, police say Jagjit Singh repeatedly approached female students at the Sarnia High School smoking area, attempted photos, spoke about drugs and alcohol, and followed them off school property.
- He was granted bail but rearrested later the same day after a second complaint, once spending one night in custody due to interpreter delay; the complainant said Singh put his arm around her, and victims reported harm to their mental health.
- The court imposed a three-year probation that restricts Jagjit Singh’s contact with the two victims and bars him from interacting with anyone under 16 except his newborn grandchild, with a 100 metres exclusion from pools, schools, playgrounds, parks and community centres.
- CBSA data show 1,891 Indian nationals were removed as of July 28 this year, following last year's 1,997 removals second only to 3,683 Mexicans and more than 981 Colombians.
