Reward reduced for Wolfpack gang killer who escaped B.C. jail
The reward for escaped gangland killer Rabih (Robby) Alkhalil has been lowered from $250,000 to $100,000. And he’s been downgraded to the number two most wanted in Canada.
On Monday, the BOLO — Be on the Lookout — program announced an updated list of the 25 most wanted.
Now at the top with a $250,000 payout for information leading to his arrest is Cristian Adolfo Cuxum, 19, charged for the brazen murder of 49-year-old Edwin Farley Alvarado Quintero, who was killed while refereeing a Toronto soccer game last October. Two others were injured in the gunfire.
Alkhalil escaped from North Fraser pretrial jail last July, just a month before a Vancouver jury convicted him in absentia of first-degree murder in the 2012 slaying of longtime rival Sandip Duhre. He was also convicted of conspiring to kill Duhre, as well as gangster Sukh Dhak, who was gunned down in November 2012.
It was the Wolfpack gangster’s second murder conviction. He was already serving life for the June 2012 murder in Toronto of Johnny Raposo, shot to death as he watched soccer at a Little Italy café — something Toronto Police Chief Myron Demkiw commented on Monday.
