Another man has been arrested in connection with the deaths of a migrant family on the Canada-U.S. border near Emerson, Man., in 2022.
The federal justice department says Fenil Patel was arrested Sept. 5 on an extradition request from the United States.
He is facing a hearing this week in Ontario Superior Court.
Police in India announced in 2023 they were looking for Patel on human trafficking and other charges after a couple and their two children froze to death while trying to walk across the border in a frigid nighttime blizzard.
