Surrey Police Service (SPS) is releasing a photo of a male who has been removed from Canada in the hopes of appealing to the public for information on his associates and activities while he was in Canada. This individual is suspected of being involved in the ongoing extortion crisis.
In early 2026, Prabhjot Singh, a 20-year-old foreign national male, was suspected by SPS as being involved in extortion-related criminal activity. SPS subsequently arrested Prabhjot Singh and shared information about him with the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). Then, as a result of their immigration investigation, Prabjot Singh was removed from Canada.
“SPS continues to work with our law enforcement partners with the shared objective of tackling the interjurisdictional and national components of extortion,” said SPS Chief Constable Norm Lipinski. “We remain steadfastly committed to our policing colleagues and to our community in combatting the extortion crisis.”
SPS is releasing this photo of Prabhjot Singh after determining that disclosure is necessary to assist with ongoing police investigations. SPS hopes that the public release of this image of Prabhjot Singh prompts additional witnesses, victims, or associates to come forward with relevant information regarding the activities of Prabhjot Singh. Any information provided by the public or associates can assist police in gathering information on the people and potential criminal networks involved in violent extortions.
SPS is asking anyone who has information on Prabhjot Singh to contact SPS’s non-emergency number at 604-599-0502, the Surrey Extortion Tip Line at 236-485-5149, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or www.solvecrime.ca if you wish to remain anonymous.
In September 2025, the Surrey Extortion Reward Fund of $250,000.00 was established to offer individuals with key information the ability to collect a reward if charges and convictions of those responsible for these crimes are secured.
