In June 2025, the Calgary Police Service’s (CPS) drug unit became aware of a home believed to be connected to the drug trade. An investigation was launched, which resulted in the identification and arrest of four men believed to be behind the drug operation four months later. Tomas Bahta, 19, Mohammed Ibrahim, 31, Fozee Ibrahim, 29, all of Calgary, and Aidan Saunders, 29, of Cochrane, were all charged in the investigation. CPS said four homes in Calgary and one in Cochrane were searched, resulting in the seizure of more than $2 million in Canadian and U.S. currency and $6.8 million in drugs. The narcotics seized include: Officials call the seizure one of the largest busts in CPS history. “The volume of drugs seized had the potential to cause immense harm not only to Calgarians, but to communities across our province. Our investigators deserve tremendous credit for taking these drugs off our streets,” said CPS Acting Chief Asif Rashid in a news release. CPS also thanked the support of partner agencies in the resolution of the case.
