The Air Canada flight leaving Zurich, Switzerland, a year ago, had some precious cargo aboard — namely 400 kilograms of gold and nearly $2 million US in cash.
It was moved across the Atlantic Ocean on April 17, 2023, just three days after a security firm had arranged for its transport to Canada.
The gold and the money — with a combined value of at least $20 million Cdn at the time — made it to Toronto’s Pearson airport.
Often an insider is found to have been an accomplice to a gang, in this case it is alleged that one guy showed up with a fraudulent waybill and waltzed out with the treasure.
