"Once this cargo was offloaded at a holding facility, subsequent to its arrival, this high-value container was removed by illegal means," said Duivesteyn.

"The container contained a high-value shipment. It did contain gold, but was not exclusive to gold, and contained other items of monetary value."

The Peel police airport division has been leading the investigation.

The force has a great working relationship with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who remain "a quick call away," Duivesteyn said, but the investigation currently remains in the Peel police's jurisdiction.

Police have not revealed any information about potential suspects and wouldn't say which airline shipped the cargo, where the gold was headed, or where the plane came from. ...
