A Brampton murder victim’s widow pleaded for anyone with information in the death of her husband and another man found in the trunk of a rented car to come forward.
“He was a good husband. He was everything to me,” Harjinder Sandhu, the wife of murder victim Harjinder Singh Sandu, told a press conference Friday.
The bullet-riddled bodies of Mr. Sandhu, 28, and Puneet Singh Chinna, 26, formerly of Nepean, Ont., were found in the trunk of a 2009 Nissan Altima on Rosebank Road in Pickering on May 5. Residents told investigators they noticed the car at about 6 the previous evening.
Friends of the victims told investigators the two left the Sandu residence at 4 p.m. on May 4 to meet friends in Scarborough. “They exited Highway 407 at Kennedy Road at precisely 4:38 p.m. and we can only speculate they went south toward Scarborough after exiting,” said Durham Regional Police Det. Mitch Martin.
Mr. Sandhu was facing drug charges of importation in Windsor.
“Certainly these murders strike me as more organized … but Chinna was not drug-related so we cannot rule out any other possible scenarios,” Det. Martin said.
