A number of arrests have been made in April and 19 prices laid in what police referred to as a “daring theft, the single-largest gold heist in Canadian historical past.”
RCMP investigated the heist final April on the nation’s busiest airport that will have netted thieves greater than C$20 million in gold taken from a cargo holding space at Pearson.
Swiss financial institution Raiffeisen Schweiz Genossenschaft and treasured metals refining firm Valcambi SA had employed Brink’s to maneuver the products from Zurich to Toronto. Brink’s, in flip, organized for Air Canada to fly the property between the 2 cities.
Within the wake of the brazen theft, Brink’s Co. sued Air Canada for allegedly letting a thief slip away with the loot.
Virtually not one of the gold has been recovered, although police did seize about C$430,000 in Canadian forex and 6 gold bracelets value about C$89,000.
