Surrey Police Service has released a photo of a man suspected of being involved in the ongoing extortion crisis.
Lovebir Singh, a 22-year-old foreign national, has been removed from Canada, but police are appealing to the public for information on his associates and activities while he was in Canada by releasing his photo.
Singh had been in Canada since the fall of 2023, SPS said in a release, and was identified by SPS in early 2026. He was suspected of being involved in extortion-related criminal activity, police said.
SPS notified and shared information on Singh with the Canada Border Services Agency and as a result of their immigration investigation, Singh was subsequently removed from Canada.
“SPS hopes that the public release of this image of Lovebir Singh prompts additional witnesses, victims, or associates to come forward with relevant information regarding (his) activities,” the release said.
SPS is asking anyone who has information on Singh to contact SPS’s non-emergency number at 604-599-0502, the Surrey Extortion Tip Line at 236-485-5149, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or solvecrime.ca to remain anonymous.
In September 2025, the Surrey Extortion Reward Fund of $250,000 was established to offer individuals with key information the ability to collect a reward if charges and convictions of those responsible for these crimes are secured, SPS added.
