One of three men who have been charged in relation to extortion-related shootings in Surrey, B.C., late last year is now wanted on a Canada-wide warrant, according to police.

Jagdeep Singh, 24, one of three men charged in relation to two shootings at the same home at the 17000-block of 32 Avenue within a five-day span in November.

RCMP had announced a previous charge against another man, 22-year-old Avtar Singh, in the case, and announced another charge against him on Friday — in addition to two charges against Sandeep Singh, 28.

All three men, who are foreign nationals, have now been charged with one count of unlawfully discharging a firearm and one count of extortion. No one was injured in either shooting.

While Sandeep and Avtar Singh are in custody, police say Jagdeep’s location is unknown. He’s also wanted by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) on an immigration warrant, according to police.

In a separate statement from Parkland RCMP in Alberta, police said that Jagdeep was arrested on Nov. 17, 2025, as he travelled through Red Deer, Alta.

Police say he was released at the time, pending further investigation, and a search that was “incidental to his arrest” led to the seizure of a firearm.

At the time, police say they identified Jagdeep as they looked into two shootings at a home in Parkland’s Spring Meadow Estate, west of Edmonton.

“Investigators sent the seized firearm away for testing at the … Provincial Firearms Lab and this firearm has been linked to [seven] shootings across the country not related to this event,” RCMP said.

“Continued investigation revealed several key pieces of evidence linking the suspect to extortions targeting the South Asian community and the shootings of the residence in Parkland County.”

WATCH | Extortion cases ramp up in Surrey:

Surrey, B.C.’s South Asian community fearful and frustrated as extortion cases ramp up

Fear and frustration are building over a perceived lack of progress in the extortion file among the South Asian community in Surrey, B.C. Despite a dedicated task force and beefed up policing announced last year, extortion cases have not slowed down and many are worried they might be increasing. There have been at least 34 cases of extortion in Surrey in January so far.

The charges against the three men in the Surrey shooting was announced by the B.C. provincial extortion task force, which was set up by the province in a bid to deal with a sharp rise of extortion cases.

Officials have said the rash of extortion-related violence has targeted the South Asian community and businesspeople in B.C.’s Lower Mainland.

The Surrey Police Service (SPS) said they have opened over 50 separate extortion investigations since the start of the year.
