A Surrey man has been convicted in Campbell River courts of possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking and obstructing a police officer.
24 year old Parmvir Dhaliwal was found guilty of possession of fentanyl and cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, as well as one count of obstructing a police officer.
His conviction follows an incident on November 16, 2022, when Campbell River RCMP arrested Dhaliwal and an accomplice outside the Duncan Bay store after a brief police investigation.
Upon his arrest, officers discovered 46 individual packages of fentanyl and cocaine, along with $305 in cash.
Dhaliwal initially refused to provide his identity, and further investigation revealed he had outstanding warrants for an unrelated criminal matter.
He is scheduled to be sentenced at a later date.
