$40M Gold Heist: The Airport Employee Who Walked Away With Everything

On April 17, 2023, an Air Canada employee helped orchestrate the largest gold heist in Canadian history. 400 kilograms of pure gold—worth over $40 million—vanished from Toronto Pearson International Airport in less than 60 seconds.

This is the full story of how an inside job, a forged document, and a five-ton truck pulled off what investigators call the sixth-largest gold theft in world history.

🔍 WHAT HAPPENED:
April 17, 2023: 6:32 PM - A truck driver presents a fake waybill at Air Canada cargo facility
Air Canada staff load $40M in gold bars without verification
The container disappears into rural Ontario
Police discover the document was printed INSIDE the facility
10 people arrested, but 98% of the gold is still missing

💰 THE MONEY TRAIL:
Police seized ledgers showing $20M distributed among criminal syndicate
Only $430,000 cash and $89,000 in gold jewelry recovered
Most gold believed melted down and shipped to Dubai and India
Actual value may be $41M+ (authorities won't confirm discrepancy)

🚨 THE SHOCKING TWISTS:
Two Air Canada employees were part of the conspiracy
One suspect arrested after voluntarily returning to the SAME airport he robbed
The heist funded international firearms trafficking (65 guns seized)
Federal court ruled Air Canada only liable for $18,000 of the $40M loss
Two suspects still at large in India and overseas

👥 THE SUSPECTS:
Durante King-McLean - Alleged truck driver, caught with 65 firearms in Pennsylvania
Parmpal Sidhu - Air Canada employee, inside man
Simran Preet Panesar - Air Canada manager who fled to India
Archit Grover - Truck owner, arrested returning from India
Arsalan Chaudhary - Arrested January 2026 arriving from Dubai
5 more charged with conspiracy, money laundering, and weapons trafficking

This heist exposed catastrophic security failures at airport cargo facilities worldwide. Billions in valuables pass through similar warehouses daily with minimal protection. Investigators believe this wasn't the last—it was the blueprint for future heists.
