Jasmohan Singh Bains cocaine charges coming to trial



Jasmohan Singh Bains was in court in Victoria on January 9th to set a date and will be back in court January 25th for an application. We all know who he is and who he was tied to. This is the cocaine connection to BC Rail. Neal Hall wrote a summery of the charges in 2007.

  1. Thank you for the information. I did pass it on.
    You write about an application which will take place 25 Jan. Could you please advise what "an application" means. Not having much knowledge of this type of court proceedings, it would be helpful.
    Also could you provide any explanation or opinion as to why it took from them to now to get into court. Its 15 Years between the raid and his court date. Is there any chance this will be tossed out of court for being outside of the acceptable time limits for getting to trial. thank you.

    1. Application means court application. Likely it's from the crown. We'll have to wait and see what it is. As to the delay, I have no idea. Some claim he was already sentenced to nine years and these are new charges after he was released.

  2. Would there be a connection between this Bains and Harry Bains the current Minister of Labour?
