Der Doppelmordverdächtige aus British Columbia ist Wochen zuvor mit einem Studentenvisum eingetroffen, sagt der Staatsanwalt der Krone

>A murder trial has heard that Arnold and Joanne De Jong hosted a “joyful” family celebration at their Abbotsford, B.C., home, on May 8, 2022, with a family member later telling police they were “alive and well” when she left at 10 p.m.

>But when family members couldn’t reach them the next day, a son-in-law visited and found Joanne De Jong dead before calling police, who quickly determined they were dealing with a double homicide, Crown prosecutor Dorothy Tsui said.

>The trial of the three men accused of killing the couple in a violent invasion got under way Monday, with the prosecution alleging the suspects were motivated by “debt, financial pressure and greed.”

>Tsui said one of the suspects, Gurkaran Singh, had arrived in Canada on a student visa on April 16, less than a month before the killings.

>She said Gurkaran Singh was supposed to go to Northern Lights College in Dawson Creek, B.C., but he never made it there.

>He and co-accused Abhijeet Singh and Khushveer Singh Toor have each pleaded not guilty to two counts of first-degree murder in the killings of the De Jongs, who were allegedly robbed.

>Tsui told the court in the Crown’s opening statement that evidence will show the three men were connected to the couple through Abhijeet Singh’s cleaning company, which had done work on the couple’s home in July 2021 and April 2022. 

>She said the De Jongs were found dead in separate bedrooms of the home, bound with rope, and a pathologist will testify that Joanne De Jong died by sharp and blunt force trauma and Arnold De Jong by asphyxiation. 

>Tsui says Gurkaran Singh and Khushveer Singh Toor both deposited cheques for more than $5,000 into their bank accounts purportedly signed by Joanne De Jong shortly after the murders. 

>The cheques both said in their memo lines that the payments were for “clean up of house,” Tsui said.

>“While processing the scene, a forensic identification officer heard a voice mail being left on the De Jong’s landline phone, indicating that there were suspicious transactions on a credit card,” she said. 

>“The police quickly followed up on that lead and obtained banking records and phone records in an attempt to identify potential suspects.” 

>Police later found that the suspicious purchases, which began around 4:30 a.m. on May 9, were associated with Rogers Communications accounts in the names of Abhijeet Singh and Khushveer Singh Toor.

>The Crown alleges “the three men acted as a team and violently confined the De Jongs in their separate bedrooms and murdered them,” stealing credit cards, cheques and a pressure washer that was later sold. 

>She told the court that the suspects “hastily fled” British Columbia for Brampton, Ont., two day after the couple was killed before returning to B.C. and renting a Surrey basement suite, where they lived together until their arrest on Dec. 16, 2022. 

>Tsui said there will be a “substantial body of circumstantial evidence” linking the men to the murders, including fingerprints, DNA on a weapon used in the murder found in the trunk of a car they used, as well as cellphone records, financial records, and evidence from electronic devices.

I don’t even need to read the article, I know the murderer is not from Finland.

His immigration status will soon be “reviewed”

More great vetting by the government.

Just more evidence of how much our immigration system has become a complete and utter joke. It would be depressing if it wasn’t so infuriating.

In before delete and lock.

As a brown international student, I have no idea why Canada continues to import fake students to study in fake universities with campuses in plaza malls. They are causing damage to everyone. I am facing more racism now than i have 5 years ago when i first arrived and i don’t even blame them.
