A Toronto-area jeweller accused in the United States of laundering money for a violent, international cocaine smuggling ring allegedly led by former Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding would be a target for the gang if he were released on bail, prosecutors told a Toronto courtroom on Wednesday.
Rolan Sokolovski, a 37-year-old poker player turned jeweller is one of eight Canadians who were arrested in November. They are now facing extradition to the U.S. in connection to their alleged ties to Mr. Wedding, also a Canadian citizen. The others accused include Deepak Paradkar, a lawyer charged with murder conspiracy and released on bail in December.
