Erik Bornmann Director of operations in B.C. for the Paul Martin leadership campaign and a former partner in Pilothouse Public Affairs Group.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page). He is alleged to have paid almost C$30,000 to British Columbia government officials for private information. He is a 'key' witness in a trial that pertains to a raid on the B.C. Legislature.

A police raid on the B.C. legislature in December 2003, where the RCMP obtained search warrants from the B.C. Supreme Court, initially led to charges against two former government employees, partly due to information provided to police by Bornmann. Later, in 2006, three more were charged.

Dave Basi, aide to former finance minister Gary Collins, and Robert Virk, assistant to former transport minister Judith Reid, face six charges: demanding or accepting benefits including money, meals, travel and employment opportunities in connection with the bidding process for B.C. Rail, fraud and breach of trust, two counts of fraud of more than $5,000.
