In an Oct. 6 news release, Calgary police said they had charged three men following an investigation into a suspected drug trafficking operation that began in June 2026.

Officers executed search warrants on Tuesday, Sept. 29, 2026, at homes in the 200 block of Riverstone Place S.E. and the 2800 block of First Street N.W., after investigators had identified several suspects and two residences police believed were connected to the suspected operation.

The searches turned up a loaded CZ 9-mm handgun, an unloaded Glock 9-mm handgun, roughly 1,275 grams of cocaine valued at about $62,000, and 137 Gabapentin pills worth approximately $700. Police also recovered $4,565 in Canadian currency and $100 in U.S. currency.

Two of the men were found inside one of the residences during the search, while the third was stopped and arrested during a traffic stop.

Tariik Rahim Jennas, 25, of Calgary, faces charges of possession of a prohibited firearm with ammunition, possession for the purpose of trafficking, and proceeds of crime under $5,000.
