Peel Regional Police, working alongside Halton Regional Police in Ontario, Canada, have recovered more than 450 pieces of stolen mail valued at over $400,000 CAD.
The joint investigation, launched in April 2025 in collaboration with Canada Post, targeted a coordinated group responsible for residential mailbox thefts across the Region of Peel.
As part of the operation, officers executed search warrants on 8 and 9 September at multiple Mississauga residences, including areas on Rhinebank Street, Brandon Gate Drive, Dwiggin Avenue, and Kittridge Drive. The raids led to the recovery of hundreds of stolen items, including credit cards, gift cards, government identification documents, and more than 250 cheques.
In total, investigators in Canada recovered 465 pieces of stolen mail, including 255 cheques, 182 credit cards, 35 government IDs, and 20 gift cards, all valued at more than $400,000.
Eight men, ranging in age from 21 to 29, were arrested and now face a combined total of 344 charges related to property crimes.
Those charged include Sumanpreet Singh, Gurdeep Chattha, Jashandeep Jattana, Harman Singh, Jasanpreet Singh, Manroop Singh, Rajbir Singh, and Upinderjit Singh. All appeared before the Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton for a bail hearing.
Peel Regional Police are working with the Peel Crown Attorney’s Office and the Canada Border Services Agency to explore whether removal of any accused foreign nationals from Canada may be pursued as part of the judicial process.
