ONTARIO’S Peel Regional Police have arrested and charged an individual in connection with uttering threats against Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown.

In late June, Peel Regional Police were notified that the mayor and his family had received threats. As a precaution, enhanced security measures were provided to ensure their safety while the matter was investigated.

On Tuesday, July 15, following a thorough investigation that included search warrants and the seizure of electronic devices, 29-year-old Kanwarjyot Singh Manoria of Brampton was arrested and charged with uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm.

Manoria was held in custody pending a bail hearing at the Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton.

At this time, investigators believe the individual acted alone and is no longer an active threat to the mayor, his family or the community.

Brown said in a post on social media: “My family and I wish to express our deepest appreciation to Peel Regional Police and Officers from 22 Division Criminal Investigation Bureau for their work. We are relieved to learn they have apprehended an individual who allegedly made threats against us.

“Violence and threats of violence have no place in a democracy. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve the citizens of Brampton, and threats will not deter me from doing the job they elected me to do.

“I again thank Peel Regional Police. They work very hard to make all of us safe.”

Anyone with information about this matter can contact the 22 Division Criminal Investigation Bureau at (905) 453-2121, extension 2233. Information may also be left anonymously by calling Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or visiting peelcrimestoppers.ca.
