A second person has been charged in relation to a protest that occurred in Brampton in early March.

On Thursday (March 11), 30-year-old Jodhveer Dhaliwal of Caledon was arrested and charged with assault causing bodily harm.

The arrest is related to a protest that occurred in early March in Brampton–the protest was in relation to the Indian government’s treatment of farmers.

This is the second arrest as part of this investigation–Jaskaran Singh, a 27-year-old Toronto resident was arrested on March 5.
