Jagmeet Dhaliwal’s attorney, Adrian Madrone, said there is significantly more to the story to tell on behalf of the brothers, but that it would come at a later time.
The brothers were both released without bond. They’re accused of assaulting two men, a 19- and 20-year-old, over a family member’s relationship dispute.
