2. Who rented it?
3. From where was it rented?

Could it be the 13 year old girl who went missing from Ladysmith BC? She was last seen when entering her fathers white van, march 15.
She went missing 48 min from Nanaimo.
Hopefully it's not her. Or any other child.

For those confused about "Dufferin, Canada", this is the Dufferin neighbourhood of Kamloops, BC, and not one of the over 50 other towns, townships, and neighbourhoods named Dufferin in Canada.

I had the location wrong in the thread's title and have since made the correction. Thank you.

If guilty of the alleged crime, I suppose this was one of Bagabuyo's "alternative means of resolving disputes". MOO

This is such a strange set of circumstances. What in the world happened here? It'll be interesting to find out the intricacies of this case.

My thoughts go out to all who love Mohd. May he rest in peace.

Baird explained that police felt it was essential to identify Abdullah in order to further the investigation and “capture all evidence” as quickly as possible. [snip] “Mohd usually travelled by foot or took public transit,” Baird noted. “We are releasing two images of Mohd getting off a bus in the downtown area on Friday, March 11.” Investigators are seeking witnesses who may have seen Abdullah...

Was he in the plastic bin IN the car? I'm confused.

 

[annpats]

Wow, there does seem to be a lot of homicides and missing people in Kamloops for such a small town.....
I think it's Canada's equivalent of Bellingham, WA.

 

[MistyWaters]

Was he in the plastic bin IN the car? I'm confused.

Yes, it appears so. Perhaps the accused had unsuccessful intentions of transporting the body and burying or hiding it without leaving a trace.

This case is semi-local to me, following.
This is so strange, when you think of a homicide with attempt to conceal a body, you wouldn't think a university professor and a lawyer would be involved!

The linked article showed that it posted on Wednesday and referenced a delay in a hearing until Wednesday. Is that next Wednesday, or was it this week? Sorry if that's a stupid question.

This is such an odd collection of news stories. What happened here? Was Mohd the victim of a random attack? Was there an existing relationship? How was the lawyer identified?

 

[bombardier]

All I know was the bail hearing finished today, and somehow, this guy was granted bail I'm not sure when his next court date is.
edit - this article states he will return to court in April.
