Yuvraj Goyal Surrey BC Death – The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) reported on Saturday that the victim of the daylight shooting, which occurred shortly before 9 am on Friday, was identified as 28-year-old Yuvraj Goyal, a resident of Surrey, British Columbia
Four persons, including an alleged gangster, have been arrested by Canadian police for the murder of a 28-year-old Indo-Canadian on Friday.
The victim of the daylight shooting, which took place shortly before 9 am on Friday, was identified as Yuvraj Goyal, 28, a resident of Surrey in the province of British Columbia, in a release from the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team or IHIT on Saturday.
Those arrested in connection with the killing were identified as Manvir Basram, 23, Sahib Basra, 20, Harkirat Jhutty, 23, all residents of Surrey and Keilon Francois, 20, who is from the province of Ontario.
On June 7, as officers from the Surrey detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police responded to a report of the shooting, they located Goyal, originally from Ludhiana, already deceased. At the time, investigators believed this was a “targeted shooting.”
However, they are attempting to ascertain the motive for the killing as Goyal had “no history of police contact.” In other words, he was not considered to have been associated in gang activity. “IHIT investigators remain dedicated to determining why Mr. Goyal was the victim of this homicide,” the Team’s spokesperson Sergeant Timothy Pierotti said.
Officers also rushed to the scene of a vehicle that was set ablaze a short while later. That is considered a hallmark of gang-related activity.
The four suspects who were taken into custody have been charged with first degree murder.
