Chomedey resident Jeevakaran Ramanathan, 35, appeared in criminal court, Feb. 12, to face fraud charges and are searching for another Chomedey resident, Sritharan Kandasamy, whom Laval Police allege was his accomplice.<\/p>\n

\u201cBetween May-Aug. 2014, the suspects used another person\u2019s name to order pizzeria merchandise,\u201d said Const. Jolyane Ledoux.<\/i> \u201cHe was paying by cheque. There was a delay between when the supplier received the cheques and discovered that there were no funds in the account.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInvestigators found 20 point-of-sale terminals, stolen good, counterfeit money and many fake identity documents related to the frauds, when they executed three search warrants, Feb. 11,\u201d she reported. \u201cThey are continuing their investigation and more charges might be filed at a later date.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meantime, Laval Police are asking anyone who might be able to help them locate Kandasamy, who operated a Chomedey transportation firm, to call their confidential tip line [450] 662-4636 and mention file n\u00ba LVL-140811-112.<\/p>\n

Cops catch catalytic converter crooks<\/b>
Laval Police credit an alert Bois de Boulogne resident for helping them to catch a pair of alleged catalytic converter thieves, Feb. 6. Last year, criminals cut some $200,000 worth of the automobile pollution control devices off of Laval vehicles.<\/p>\n

Const. Franco di Genova commended the witness.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt 12:40 a.m., the witness looked out his apartment window, spotted someone lying underneath his vehicle and called 911,\u201d he told The Suburban. \u201cHe did everything right: He didn\u2019t physically intervene. He gave us the make and model of the suspects\u2019 car and its license plate number.\u201d<\/p>\n

Within three minutes, a patrol car arrived, but the suspects had fled.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey found the vehicle in a nearby parking lot with a nervous woman, a 32-year old Mirabel resident, and 27-year-old man from Blainville inside,\u201d Const. di Genova said in an interview. \u201cWhile one officer checked the couple\u2019s identification on the police computer, the other noticed a catalytic converter and two reciprocating saws on the back seat.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey arrested the two suspects and subsequently found seven more catalytic converters in the vehicle,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

The devices can cost $1,500 to replace (or up to $5,000 for a truck) and the stolen converters fetch $130 from used parts dealers, according to United States law enforcement officials. <\/p>\n

The catalytic converters contain a thin internal coating of platinum that dramatically reduces air pollution. Even though there is only a tiny amount of platinum in a catalytic converter, the metal is worth more than gold, fetching nearly $1,550\/oz at the time of the arrests.<\/p>\n

The converters also contain other valuable metals like palladium, whose price has soared to nearly $1,000\/oz, and rhodium, whose price was a whapping $1,500\/oz at the time of the arrests. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
