high-profile former B.C. gangster was shot to death near his beachside villa in Phuket, Thailand.
Despite Sandhu getting deported from Canada in 2016 for “serious criminality,” the Indian-born gangster continued to have influence in B.C.
Sgt. Brenda Winpenny of the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit said Saturday that the slaying of UN gangster Jimi (Slice) Sandhu in Thailand could reverberate in B.C.
The UN, the Brothers Keepers and the Red Scorpion/Kang group are among the B.C. gangs locked in a violent war that has led to dozens of murders in recent years. Some BK gangsters celebrated Sandhu’s murder in social-media posts when the news broke here Friday afternoon.
