A Saskatchewan judge has sentenced a former international student from India to 11 years in prison after he pled guilty to drug trafficking and possessing proceeds of crime charges.
Jatinderpal Singh, 27, was an international student at an Ontario university where he finished his first year, but said he couldn’t afford to continue his second year and turned to drug trafficking to pay off his debts, Saskatoon provincial court Judge Lisa Watson’s Sept. 4 written decision says.
