Punjabi trucker nabbed in US for smuggling drugs

Toronto, Sep 1 (IANS) A Punjabi-origin Indo-Canadian trucker driver was arrested Monday by US authorities for trying to smuggle marijuana from Canada.
Forty-year-old driver Gurmit Singh of North York on the outskirts of Toronto was arrested on the Canada-US border in New York State Monday after he was found carrying 353 pounds of marijuana in his truck cargo. Singh had concealed the drug by co-mingling it with fire wood he was ferrying from Toronto to Worcester in Massachusetts in the US.
On suspicion, US Customs and Border Protection officials at the Peace Bridge entry port in Buffalo searched the truck.
The X-ray of the vehicle deepened their suspicion, forcing the officers to physically search the whole load of fire wood cargo.
The search led to discovery of bundles of marijuana hidden in fire wood, according to US Customs.
Singh was arrested and the truck confiscated. He was charged with smuggling the contraband into the US.
“Marijuana is freely available in Canada, particularly British Columbia province. Its smuggling into the US has become an easy route to quick riches for many Indian Canadians. So I am not surprised when these guys get caught.
People are greedy and they want to become rich quickly,” a trucking company owner of the Greater Toronto Area told IANS.
Over the years, drug gangs of young boys growing up without proper parental supervision have sprung up. Their modus operandi is to smuggle marijuana into the US and, in return, bring cocaine into Canada.
In order to money quickly, many Indian Canadian truck drivers too have joined hands with these gangs to ferry drugs across the border. So much so that even some Punjabi-origin Canadian border officials too have been arrested for their collusion in drug smuggling.

Goal! Soccer team at SJSU gives Punjabi immigrants an entry to Silicon Valley culture

Updated: 08/21/2009 10:45:22 PM PDT
When Kirandip Riar moved from Punjab, India, six years ago and started high school in San Leandro, he was too nervous to sign up for the soccer team.
"I was too shy," the 22-year-old said.
But a few years ago, a Punjabi friend asked the computer science student to play soccer on a mostly Punjabi team at San Jose State University.
The pals have since joined a soccer league in Hayward, composed mostly of teammates from Mexico and some from Afghanistan. And this weekend, several team members from this diverse league will play soccer at a sporting extravaganza sponsored by the Sikh Sports Association at California State University-East Bay in Hayward.
Soccer has provided Riar an entry into mainstream Silicon Valley life.
"I'm more open now," he said. "I'm not shy any more."
This cross-cultural bridge is exactly what association founders had hoped for, said one of the organizers, Harpaul Singh, who also leads the Punjabi student club at James Logan High School in Union City. So far, about 950 participants have signed up to play tennis, soccer, golf, field hockey, basketball, track and field, volleyball, and two Indian-centered sports of cricket and kabbadi — Punjabi-style wrestling.
The games don't have any religious overtones, and welcome anyone to play, but the majority of players do hail from the northern Indian state of Punjab and are Sikh by faith.
Over the years, Singh has watched students born in rural areas of Punjab steer away from high school sports teams after they arrive in the United States.
"The kids from the villages, they don't have those kind of facilities back there," Singh said.
The Sikh sports event, he said, is to help those kids, and others, become more familiar with a variety of American-style athletics, which hopefully will lead to a more level playing field between new immigrants and mainstream society.
"We want them to learn how to play the games," he said, "so that they won't be frogs in a well. If they learn how to play informally, then maybe they'll start to play at school."

Remembering '84 riot victims with green pledge
Smriti Singh, TNN 2 August 2009, 12:14am IST
NEW DELHI: Twenty-five years after thousands of Sikhs lost their lives in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots, families of the victims have taken solace in
nature. To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the carnage, hundreds of Sikhs planted over 250 saplings around the Karkardooma court complex on Saturday.
Gathered in large numbers outside the court complex, where the hearing of one of the riot-related cases was going one, people planted saplings as a life-affirming gesture to humankind. Amid heavy police presence to avert any tension during the hearing many families quietly planted trees in memory of their loved ones.
Gurdeep Singh, one of the volunteers, said that by going back to nature, he wanted to spread the message of love and harmony. "I lost two members of my family in the carnage and the pain of losing someone you love is immense. By planting a tree in their remembrance, I am also contributing to nature,'' he said.
The cause initiated by Gyan Sewa Trust and Sant Baba Sewa Singh Ji, Panjab, witnessed the participation of various other independent Sikh organizations. The tree plantation drive, according to H S Phoolka, senior lawyer and chairman of Gyan Sewa Trust, was a way to connect with people for a common cause. "With increasing global warming and depleting greenery in Delhi, we feel it is absolutely important to undertake such campaigns and to connect with people on issues that have an emotional appeal,'' Phoolka said.
Around 1,000 saplings have already been planted in south Delhi in the drive that started on July 27. "We have a target of planting 25,000 trees across the city by November, which will mark 25 years since the tragedy took place,'' Phoolka added.
And the drive does not end here. The planted trees will be maintained by the organizations for one year across the city.
