Sarbjit Singh Bassi, 33, pleaded guilty last April to possession of ecstasy with the intent to distribute. U.S. District Judge Thomas Zilly said the lengthy sentence would place a burden on Bassi's family but was necessary to send a strong message to other potential participants in the transporting of illegal drugs into the U.S. Bassi attempted to cross into the U.S. at Blaine last Jan. 15 with a load of ecstasy and ephedrine concealed in the tractor-trailer he was driving. kbolan@png.canwest.com © The Vancouver Sun 2005 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palm_w1 Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Does anyoe other than kim bolan ever cover a story at the vancouver sun which involves sikhs???????? I think its dangerous to always have 1 person commenting on a community, especially when that journalist has demonstarted ignorance and bias in the past. p.s. i am not trying to justify drug smuggling! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
