RCMP federal investigators said Wednesday police searched a Surrey home in September that was surrounded by razor wire fencing with steel gates and arrested the men. Officers also seized 23 firearms, several thousand rounds of ammunition and “multi-kilos of illicit drugs” from the house. He said he could not say which cartel group the men were part of, but confirmed that the operation had been “disrupted as a result of the arrest of one of their main leaders in the United States over the summer.”
“The suspects have since been releasedand numerous drug and firearms related charges are being pursued,” he told reporters.
