Human remains found in Surrey identified

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 03 May, 2023 09:44 AM
  • Human remains found in Surrey identified

Mounties say they have identified human remains that were found in Surrey earlier this year, following calls for the public's help.

The R-C-M-P say they were able to identify the victim within a week of releasing photos of a tattoo and the clothing the man was wearing.

They say his name is not being shared out of respect for his family and their request for privacy.

Police say criminality is not believed to be a factor in his death.
