On February 12th, 2025, a A Surrey man was convicted in Campbell River courts of possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking and obstructing a police officer.

Parmvir Dhaliwal, 24, was found guilty of possession of fentanyl and cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, as well as one count of obstructing a police officer. His conviction follows an incident on November 16, 2022, when Campbell River RCMP arrested Dhaliwal and an accomplice outside the Duncan Bay store after a brief police investigation.

Upon his arrest, officers discovered 46 individual packages of fentanyl and cocaine, along with $305 in cash. Dhaliwal initially refused to provide his identity, and further investigation revealed he had outstanding warrants for an unrelated criminal matter.

Dhaliwal is scheduled to be sentenced at a later date.
