Last Updated On 3 May 2023, 8:22 AM EDT (Toronto Time)

The Toronto police unveiled the list of the 25 most wanted criminals in Canada by raising life-sized cardboard cut-outs at Yonge-Dundas Square.

The list is part of the Bolo Program, which stands for “Be On the Lookout,” and aims to publicize police-wanted notices to help apprehend Canada’s most wanted fugitives.

This new list has now included Sidhu Moosewala murder prime accused Goldy Brar among the wanted gangsters in Canada.

The widow of a man who was shot and killed while refereeing a soccer game last year is pleading with the man responsible for her husband’s death to turn himself in.

Alexandra Barrera, the widow of Edwin Farley Alvarado Quintero, made her appeal at a news conference held by BOLO in Toronto’s Yonge-Dundas Square on Monday. 

Cristian Adolfo Cuxum, the 19-year-old man responsible for Edwin’s death, is at the top of BOLO’s list of the 25 most wanted criminals in Canada.

A reward of $250,000 has been made available for information leading to his capture. Cuxum’s alleged actions also left two soccer players with life-altering injuries.

At the news conference, Alexandra Barrera addressed Cuxum directly: “To the man who took [Edwin’s] life: You destroyed us. You destroyed our family. You destroyed our plans. Our dreams. Our sense of safety. Our everything. You cannot make that right. But if you turn yourself in, you will allow us to take our next step forward in this nightmare.”

Max Langlois, the director of the BOLO program, explained why Cuxum’s alleged offenses are at the top of the list: “It’s not an exact science, but Cuxum’s alleged actions had a widespread impact on the community, and the nature of the crime is particularly heinous.”

Chief Myron Demkiw of the Toronto Police Service urged anyone with information about the wanted individuals to come forward: “We don’t need evidence. We don’t need you in court. We just need to find them.” Cuxum is one of ten suspects wanted by police in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area.

What is the Bolo Program?

The Bolo Program is a charitable organization established by the founder and CEO of GardaWorld Security Corporation.

Its primary objective is to use social media campaigns and billboards to raise awareness of the most wanted criminals in Canada and encourage people to come forward with any information that could help police apprehend them.

The updated list includes 25 individuals wanted by various police forces across the country, including suspects in cases of murder, assault, and drug trafficking. The list is not ranked in any particular order, but each suspect is considered to be a high-priority target for law enforcement agencies.

By making the public aware of these fugitives and offering rewards for information leading to their capture, the Bolo Program hopes to make Canadian communities safer and bring closure to victims and their families.

The program has helped police apprehend several suspects since its launch, including 32-year-old Abilaziz Mohamed, who was arrested within hours of being named as the top suspect on the BOLO list last year.

Mohamed was subsequently charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of Craig MacDonald in a Scarborough parking lot.

The Bolo Program has proved to be a powerful tool in the fight against crime in Canada.

By leveraging social media and other forms of advertising, the program is able to reach a wide audience and encourage people to come forward with information that could help police solve crimes and bring criminals to justice.
