Sinaloa Cartel killing of Donald Lyons - 10 months on

There has always been compelling circumstantial evidence in the murder of Donny Lyons. Prabtaj Singh Sandher and Gurtaj Singh Sandher are the killers. Strong circumstantial evidence against them is not enough to convince a judge of their guilt. On June 15, 2024 Donald Bryce Lyons, 51, was gunned down in his Princeton driveway. Donny Lyons was no choirboy. He was a major gangster, one of the founders of the Independent Soldiers. Lyons spent his entire adult life doing crimes. Lester Jones, the out bad thief vice-president of the Kelowna Hells Angels, was close friends with Lyons. When Lyons was murdered he was a major player in the production of synthetic drugs including fentanyl. Lyons was shot down like a dog by his partners, and that was a fate he likely deserved.

Prabtaj Singh Sandher

Donald Bryce Lyons' story is notable for the fact that those he trusted eliminated him, common for those in his line of work. Gangsters need to fear those closest to them. Lyons trusted the Khalistani Sandhers, and the Sinaloa Cartel. That was a fatal mistake.

Prabtaj Singh Sandher and Gurtaj Singh Sandher executed Lyons. Prabtaj Singh Sandher was likely the man who pulled the trigger to make his bones with the Sinaloa Cartel. The hit was ordered by Sinaloa Cartel boss Edgar Watson. Donald Lyons was murdered because he was competition in the synthetic drug lab business.

Edgar Watson

Lyons was eliminated by his partners, and orders came from the highest levels. The decision to eliminate Donnie Lyons came from Sami El-Helou and Edgar Watson. The hit was approved by Chapito Iván Archivaldo Guzmán Salazar, who gave the final nod of approval. Gurtaj Sandher and Prabtaj Sandher were the hitmen. Unless the Sandhers are charged with the murder of Donnie Lyons, nobody will be. The decision to whack Donnie Lyons was an extremely bad one. Murdering your partners may be fine in Sinaloa Mexico but its frowned upon in Canada. Lyons was well connected and revenge on the killers through rats has been large.

His killers have seen multiple labs get busted, and nobody in gangland wants anything more to do with them. Gangsters are reluctant to become the next partners and existing gangsters wonder if they are next. The Sandhers, Donny Lyons and to a lesser degree Dale Habib were in partnership in the synthetic drug business and that business was booming.

The huge load of meth precursors found in Enderby and lassoed by cops belonged to them. RCMP raided a rural property in September 2024 and seized over 30,000 kg of precursor chemicals. The precursors fed multiple labs, including the Falkland lab, which was busted in October.

The Langley fentanyl lab was also busted in October.The Spallumcheen lab was nailed in Feb.

Chinese chemicals shown are pearlized sodium hydroxide, used in soap making.

A truck registered to Lyons was on the Enderby property. Precursors were purchased by Sami El-Helou and came through DeltaPort via Ricco the Pig Puncher and the HAMC.

Sami El-Helou's Brightway is the conduit for precursors.

P2P meth is manufactured with phenyl-2-propanone (phenylacetone). Purity is above 90% and it is cheap to produce. This was the first time it was found in Western Canada. Other reagents in meth production include hypophosphorous acid, iodine, sulfuric acid and red and white phosphorus. For every kilo of meth, 5 to 7 kilos of toxic waste is produced. For every kilo of fentanyl, up to 15 kilos of toxic waste is produced.

Donny Lyons must be laughing in the afterlife. For all of the dark plots of the Sinaloa Cartel, his murder was the beginning of the end for their operation. Half a dozen labs have been shuttered. American intelligence received in January will result in busts of further labs scattered across B.C.

Donny Lyons, HA Larry Amero and Sukhvir Deo. Lyons survived over 25 years in gangland. He had a very long history with police.

Lyons was a member of the defunct HAMC puppet club The Kingpins run by Dale Habib. The Sandhers were also involved with the Habibs and have close ties with them to this day.

Amandeep Singh Kang, Brothers Keeper - Ricco the Pig Puncher

There is trouble in paradise vis-a-vis the unfrettered flow of percursors through DeltaPort. The KTF/Sinaloa Cartel decision to whack Donnie Lyons is not sitting well with the HAMC and the Pig Puncher. To burn the HAMC with massive cop heat with its initial business means further HAMC cooperation at DeltaPort is problematic. The re-establishment of a dedicated police force at DeltaPort seems inevitable. Had Donnie Lyons not been executed, a profitable business would have continued to fly under cop radar. Now its in the spotlight. The greed of the KTF/Sinaloa Cartel is bad for HAMC business.

The Roberts Bank Terminal is the country's largest container terminal and moves 3 million containers annually. Expansion plans will see that number increase to more than 5 million. It all belongs to the HAMC.

Previously, the KTF didn't deal directly with the Hell's Angels, the Brother's Keepers were the intermediary.

With Amandeep Singh Kang locked up for 11 years, the KTF (Khalistan Tiger Force) found itself having to deal directly with the HAMC at the Delta Port. The club has control through members from the White Rock, Haney, Nomads, and East End chapters. The KTF deal with Ricco the Pig Puncher now. Ricco can't be missed as he carries over 400 pounds on that 6' 5" biker frame.

Ricco is a collector for the HAMC. Ricco's wife is conected to the Sandhers. Nothing gets through DeltaPort without the Pig Puncher knowing about it. ALL the precursors landed by cops recently have come through the HAMC and DeltaPort. The execution of Donny Lyons has brought great cop heat on the Pig Puncher's operations at DeltaPort.

It was an annoyed Pig Puncher that beat womanly Gurtaj Singh Sandher in September, causing the purchase of Sandher 'executive protection' in October.

In March 2024 career Punjabi gangster Amandeep Singh Kang was wounded in a shooting in Cloverdale. Weeks later he was sentenced to 11 years in jail for drug trafficking. Charges were laid in 2021 and stemmed from a 3 year probe by gang cops into the Brothers Keepers. After 'Operation Valley Cloak' in 2018, Kang became a target of the CFSEU.

Kang admitted that in 2019 and 2020 he peddled wholesale quantities of fentanyl, heroin, meth and cocaine. Cops seized more than 11 kg of drugs, including fentanyl, cocaine and meth. Amandeep Singh Kang is an original, founding Brothers Keeper.

The Delta Port is a major source of fentanyl and drug precursors from China. Nothing gets through Delta Port without the Hells Angels blessing. Guns find their way through Delta Port - often fully automatics. The slow death of the Brother's Keepers through attrition has allowed the KTF to consolidate control, and Arsh Dalla is very aggressive. Older KTF want him replaced because the street gangster is bringing cop heat.

KTF gangster ranks swelled through immigration fraud aka study permits. The goal of the KTF under Arsh Dalla is to bring all Indo gangsters under the KTF as puppet gangs. He plots to exterminate rivals who don't fall into communion with the KTF. The pure gangster is very far from a quasi-religious figure like the whacked Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

Sam Kang, Amandeep Kang, Daniel Grewal – The tattoo in Punjabi on their stomachs refers to Nir Bhau (Without Fear) The Brothers Keepers have been deeply involved in the B.C. gang conflict, with their biggest rivals being the United Nations gang, and some in the BIBO/Kang and Latimer group, which has realigned itself with the Wolfpack.

Gangster Jaskeert Kalkat, who was shot to death in Burnaby in May 2021, was caught on tape with Kang. Kang and Kalkat were observed together frequently. The Brothers Keepers remain players in the wholesale drug trade in B.C. solely because of the HAMC. Brothers Keeper Jagraj Atwal avoided the afterlife after 2 gunmen ran up and opened fire at his SUV near a busy Robson and Richards streets at 5:45pm on March 30th.
