The Peel Regional Police claims to have made one more arrest while it continues to scan through various videos relating to incidents of violence in Brampton last week.
One of the individuals has since been identified as 35-year-old Inderjeet Gosal of Brampton. On Nov.8, 2024, he was arrested and charged with Assault with a Weapon. He was released on conditions and is to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton at a later date.
Earlier, the police had arrested Ron Banerjee, a resident of Toronto, for using a loudspeaker to incite violence. Warrants of arrest of two other persons wanted in the case have also been issued.
The police maintained that since it takes time to analyse hundreds of videos, additional suspects involved in criminal actions may be arrested.
The Peel Regional Police said in a statement that Investigators from the 21 Division Criminal Investigations Bureau and Strategic Investigation Team (SIT) have arrested and charged another individual involved in the violent demonstration at a Brampton Mandir.
On Nov.3, Peel Regional Police responded to an altercation during a demonstration at a Mandir on The Gore Road in Brampton. As tensions between opposing sides increased, the demonstrations became physical and assaultive.
Police began investigating several offences that occurred during the demonstration, many of which were captured on video; including individuals using flags and sticks to assault people.
“A Strategic Investigative Team is dedicated to investigating incidents of criminality during the Nov.3 and 4 incidents has since been formed. We would like to remind the public that complex investigations such as these take time and that individuals are arrested as they are identified and in no specific order.
“Investigators continue to analyse hundreds of videos of the incidents and are working to identify additional suspects involved in criminality and anticipate further arrests,” the statement said.
