County Employees Charged with Embezzlement

Three employees of the Fairfax County Division of Solid Waste Disposal and Resource Recovery (DSWDRR) were charged with embezzling over $12,000. They were working at the I-66 transfer station, at 4618 West Ox Road in Fairfax, and the I-95 landfill complex, at 9850 Furnace Road in Lorton, where customers dispose of trash, recycled materials, brush and other unwanted items. Based on the type of material and/or weight, the DSWDRR may charge a fee for the waste.

An internal investigation revealed the suspects were allegedly pocketing cash payments from customers. The Fairfax County Police Financial Crimes Division was notified in July and initiated a criminal investigation. On Monday, October 5, Gurinder Singh, 62, of 4401 Fallen Oak Drive in Chantilly; Bir Bhogal, 47, of 1208 Cuzco Court in Herndon; and Segundo Ramon Beltran, 52, of 234 Whitsons Run Drive in Stafford, were each charged with felony embezzlement. They turned themselves in to detectives and were transported to the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center.
