NHL player Nazem Kadri’s father, Sam, says he was “stunned” when police this week dismantled a suspected drug lab in a building he owns in southeast London.

More charges are expected out of the raid but not against the building owners, who are “not believed to be involved with the suspected meth lab,” RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Louise Savard said in an email.

Sam Kadri told The Free Press he was “stunned and surprised” when he learned of the police raid on the building at 923 Commissioners Rd. E., just east of Adelaide Street.

“That’s part of owning real estate,” Kadri said. “You don’t know exactly who’s going to be in there. It’s like renting a residential house and somebody doing that.”

Kadri said he rented the building to a new person starting just a few weeks ago. The man who rented the property was not one of the people arrested by the RCMP, Kadri said, adding he has shared the tenant’s details with police.
