$1.5M bail revoked for alleged Project South drug trafficker accused of bribing Toronto cops

An alleged drug trafficker accused of obtaining confidential information from a Toronto police officer, which investigators say was used in an unsuccessful conspiracy to kill a senior corrections officer, was back in custody Tuesday morning after his bail was revoked.

The Crown asked for a Superior Court review of the decision to release Brian Da Costa on a $1.5 million bail in early March. Justice Rita Maxwell ordered his detention and vacated the lower court’s decision, which saw Da Costa released under house arrest supervised by three sureties.
