From the photo it appears the van is owned by Devon Transport, LLC. According to Dun & Bradstreet "Devon Transport Ltd is located in Nanaimo, BC, Canada and is part of the Automotive Equipment Rental and Leasing Industry. Devon Transport Ltd has 402 total employees across all of its locations and generates $36.06 million in sales (USD)."
1. Was the van reported stolen?
2. Who rented it?
3. From where was it rented?

Bagabuyo & Company Law Corporation - Bagabuyo and Company Law Corporation - Kamloops, BC, Canada lawyer resolving disputes with mediation, arbitration and litigation
Butch Bagabuyo
In addition to his courtroom skills as a litigator and his negotiation skills as a mediator, Butch is also a trained and qualified arbitrator. He applies his knowledge of the law to resolve matters in a fair and inexpensive manner.

Butch continually promotes alternative means of resolving disputes to all his clients because he passionately believes that many disputes can be effectively resolved outside of the court system. Arbitration is one of the many options that Bagabuyo & Company can provide.

If guilty of the alleged crime, I suppose this was one of Bagabuyo's "alternative means of resolving disputes". :confused: MOO
 
Rest in peace, Mr. Abdullah. :(

Found Deceased - Canada - Mohd Abdullah, 60, univ professor, failed to show up @ work, Kamloops, 14 Mar 2022
 
Essentially: the lawyer that Mohd Abdullah trusted to protect his life savings, spent it all and then murdered Abdullah when he wanted it back...

The killer tried to dispose of the remains, but the ground was still frozen...

Somehow, Butch got through law school but I guess it'd been a few decades and he'd become a bit rusty...
