Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 30 Jun, 2023 12:20 PM

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Unit is renewing its calls for the public's help in solving a year-old murder.

Sergeant Timothy Pierotti says police believe there are people who have critical information that can bring the victim's family closure.

They say that around 1 A-M on June 30th last year, police responded to reports of gunshots.

They say officers arrived to find 37-year old Mehdi “Damian” Eslahian suffering from gunshot wounds outside a home in Port Coquitlam, and he died at the scene.
