Three people are facing charges after three stolen vehicles were recovered following a Peel police investigation into an alleged organized auto crime group.
Peel police’s commercial auto crime bureau began the investigation in December. Investigators allege a group was stealing vehicles, tractor-trailers and committing auto-related fraud.
On Thursday, officers executed a search warrant at a residence in Brampton.
“Investigators recovered three previously reported stolen vehicles equipped with fraudulent Ontario licence plates,” a police release alleges.
Three Brampton residents, two men and a woman, have been arrested.
Amritpal Khattra, 28, Gurtas Bhullar, 33, and Mandeep Kaur, 32, face a variety of charges.
“Khattra and Bhullar were held pending a bail hearing and Mandeep was released on an undertaking with conditions,” the release adds.
“At the time of their arrests, Khattra and Bhullar were on court-imposed release orders in relation to property offences.”
