UMVA has learned that a shocking case of misconduct has led to a rookie police officer with the York Regional Police being charged with serious offenses.
Constable Kivijan Ketheeswaran, who began his employment with York Regional Police in October 2024, has been arrested and charged with unauthorized use of a computer and breach of trust by a public officer, following an investigation by the York Regional Police Professional Standards Bureau.
The rookie officer, who worked as a uniform officer in 4 District, has been placed on paid suspension since April 11, 2025, as a result of the ongoing investigation, and has been released from custody with conditions.
His first court appearance is scheduled for September 8 at the Ontario Court of Justice in Newmarket, marking a significant development in a case that has raised questions about the integrity of the police force.
UMVA can exclusively reveal that this incident is not related to Project South, a separate investigation that led to eight officers being criminally charged and several others being suspended.
The charges against Constable Ketheeswaran are a stark reminder of the scrutiny facing law enforcement agencies, as authorities continue to investigate allegations of misconduct and wrongdoing.
Anyone with additional information related to this case is asked to come forward, with contact details provided for those wishing to report tips or provide information.
