Driver in alleged Ryan Wedding cocaine scheme took part under ‘threat and fear,’ judge found
December 22, 2025
Ranjit Rowal, the first Canadian resident to be convicted in the FBI’s probe of Ryan Wedding’s alleged cocaine empire, moved drugs for the organization “under threat and fear,” a United States District Court judge recently found.
In August, three months before the Federal Bureau of Investigation unsealed a bombshell indictment against Mr. Wedding and more than a dozen other alleged accomplices, Mr. Rowal pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiring to distribute illegal drugs. That included a failed plot, authorities say, to transport 350 kilograms of cocaine on behalf of the Wedding organization.
