Mohammed Abdullahi, 34, of Toronto, who was still occupying the top row of the Bolo Program’s “Still Wanted” list of fugitives on Thursday evening, was arrested earlier in the day by Belleville Police after a drug bust in that city.

Abdullahi, who was originally wanted for first-degree murder, is facing additional charges as well after Belleville Police, Kingston Police and the OPP made a series of raids in Belleville’s east end , according to Quinte News , that also saw a Pickering man among those arrested and drugs seized.

In addition to the murder rap, Abdullahi is now facing charges that include possession of a schedule I substance for the purpose of trafficking (cocaine), proceeds of crime under $5,000 and obstructing police.

First suspect arrested in November 2025

The arrest of Abdullahi came almost six months after another man was apprehended by police and charged with murder in connection to the July 2023 slaying of Mohamed Ahmed – the 36-year-old brother of Juno Award-winning rapper Mustafa Ahmed, who goes by the name Mustafa the Poet.

Mohamed Ahmed was found inside a vehicle with a gunshot wound and pronounced dead at the scene after a brazen daylight shooting in Cabbagetown – near the intersection of Sherbourne and Shuter Sts. – on July 25, 2023

About a week later, Abdullahi and Yasir Mohamed were wanted by cops with Mohamed eventually earning a spot in the Bolo Program’s 25 most wanted list before his arrest by the Toronto Police fugitive squad in November 2025.

Arrest came after Ahmed’s pal sentenced for murder

Mohamed, who was 29 at the time of his arrest, was charged with first-degree murder , pointing a firearm, unauthorized possession of a firearm, assault with a weapon, possession of a firearm contrary to a prohibition order and two counts of failure to comply with a recognizance order.

Court heard last year that Mohamed Ahmed had called rapper Ridge “Big Rax” Kazumba, who was in Congo at the time, the day before his slaying to warn him that people wanted Kazumba and his son dead.

Kazumba, who performed at the Junos with Ahmed’s brother in 2022, was sentenced to life in prison on Tuesday with no chance of parole for 12 years after being convicted of the second-degree murder of Nakhari Henry-Robinson.
