Vancouver police officer charged with fraud, theft and breach of trust
Police say a 2.5-year covert investigation led to four fraud counts, four theft counts and a breach-of-trust charge against the veteran detective.
- On Thursday, Vancouver Police detective and KidsPlay Foundation CEO Kal Dosanjh was arrested and charged with four counts of fraud, four counts of theft over $5,000, and breach of trust, alongside co-accused Sarabjit Singh Gill.
- A veteran officer with over 25 years in the Vancouver Police Department, Dosanjh founded the Surrey-based KidsPlay Foundation in 2015 to steer youth away from gangs, drugs, and violence.
- Vancouver Police launched a "covert investigation" lasting about 2.5 years, culminating in Thursday's arrest and the seizure of boxes of documents from Dosanjh's residence listed in court records.
- Alliance Lawyers issued a statement on Dosanjh's behalf late Thursday, asserting he "has committed no crime and is innocent of any wrongdoing" as the Vancouver Police Department prepares Friday's news conference.
- Court records allege offenses occurred between 2017 and 2025, a period during which the Surrey-based KidsPlay Foundation expanded youth programs across Canada, India, Colombia, and Uganda.
