The nine manufacturing, smuggling, importation and weapon possession-related offences against Reza Nezamabadi, 33, followed a probe by the CBSA’s Ontario Firearms Smuggling Enforcement Team (OFSET).

CBSA officers at the international mail and cargo processing facilities in Mississauga and Vancouver intercepted multiple falsely declared packages destined for the same address.

The packages were allegedly found to contain various prohibited firearm devices and 3-D manufacturing equipment, typically used to build AR-15-style firearms.

On Nov. 12, CBSA officers executed a search warrant at the accused’s residence in Aurora and allegedly seized four 3-D-manufactured prohibited firearms, two 3-D-printed prohibited devices, one 3-D-printed restricted firearm, two 3-D printers, multiple prohibited suppressors and suppressor parts, as well as various additional parts, tools and accessories.

“CBSA officers work around the clock to prevent gun violence by stopping the flow of prohibited firearms, disrupting criminality and protecting our communities,” federal Public Safety Minister David McGuinty said in a statement.

“I want to thank the CBSA and the York Regional Police for their efforts in seizing illegal firearms, printers and prohibited parts through this investigation.”
