Three suspended officers from the Peel Regional Police are currently under investigation by Ontario's Law Enforcement Complaints Agency (LECA) regarding alleged connections to an ongoing corruption probe known as Project South. This investigation was prompted after accusations emerged related to corruption within the Toronto Police, which involved multiple officers. The LECA deemed it necessary to take over the investigation, citing public interest as the motivation for their involvement.

The officers were administratively suspended earlier this month following revelations from the York Regional Police regarding serious allegations against several members of the Toronto Police. The community and other stakeholders are keenly observing the developments of this case, as it raises significant concerns about police accountability and potential misconduct. The current allegations against the Toronto officers include a wide range of serious offenses such as bribery, drug trafficking, and breach of trust, which place the integrity of law enforcement agencies in question.

While the investigation progresses, the Peel Regional Police have stated that none of their suspended officers have yet been charged in connection with Project South. This situation highlights the complexities involved in policing governance and the importance of independent oversight agencies like LECA, which play a crucial role in maintaining public trust in the justice system.
