Dagher will answer questions after police dismantled a 16-member patrol unit and suspended or reassigned 13 officers over misconduct allegations.
- Montreal Police Chief Fady Dagher will brief city officials and the public on the Montreal-Nord investigation, addressing lingering questions after weeks of limited updates regarding the department's internal probe.
- Following the June dismantling of a 16-member patrol unit at the Montreal-Nord station, the briefing addresses serious allegations of misconduct and racism that renewed community concerns about racial profiling.
- Dagher confirmed in an internal video message that three officers were suspended and three assigned to administrative duties, while 10 officers were transferred to other units to manage the internal fallout.
- Prosecutor spokesperson Anick Cantin stated that police have not yet submitted a case for possible criminal charges against the officers involved, confirming the investigation remains in an administrative phase.
- Police confirmed in an outline released Friday that a new team was deployed in the community on July 13 to maintain stability while the broader investigation continues.
