Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) has ruled that there are no reasonable grounds to believe a Toronto police officer committed a criminal offence in connection with the death of a 32-year-old North York man.
On Oct. 13, 2022, Taresh Bobby Ramroop fell from the 16th-floor window of a high-rise apartment building in the Jane and Finch area following an interaction with Toronto police. He died at the scene.
“The officers were duty bound, in the circumstances, to do what they reasonably could to prevent that risk from materializing.” He also agreed that the police’s decision to not storm the bedroom was not a viable option “given the time it would take for officers to breach the door and the Complainant’s presence beside an open window.”
They said that their loved one was suffering from “severe depression” at the time and should have been provided with better mental health support. They also called for the abolition of the TPS and the development of appropriate and caring emergency responses.
