The alleged leader of a notorious street gang that is involved in brutal turf wars in Quebec during which victims have been tortured and have had their limbs amputated is the most-wanted fugitive in Canada.

Quebec provincial police said today that Dave “Pik” Turmel, leader of the Blood Family Mafia, is the new number 1 suspect of the Bolo Program, a project operated by a Canadian charity to alert the public about dangerous criminals.
