Following a trial that began in February, Aldrin John Manalaysay Pascua was found guilty of multiple offences related to a Regina gun trafficking operation.
Pascua was found guilty of conspiracy to traffic firearms, trafficking firearms, possession of firearms for the purpose of trafficking, and possession of a firearm with readily accessible ammunition.
The court found that “between November 2018 and October 2021, Mr. Pascua participated in a scheme to acquire, possess, and transfer both restricted and non-restricted firearms through straw purchases,”
according to written submissions made by the defence. The fate of Pascua now rests in the hands of a judge.
