Langley RCMP locate body of deceased male in a wooded area, IHIT takes over investigation

Darpan News Desk IHIT, 30 Mar, 2022 04:21 PM

On Tuesday Langley RCMP were called to a wooded area in the 7400-block of 208 Street just after noon.

Langley RCMP frontline officers attended and located a 29-year-old deceased man, of Langley. Based on the early findings of the investigation, this does not appear to be a random act.

IHIT is in the early stages of the investigation and the area surrounding the scene will be cordoned off for the remainder of the day.

“I want to assure the public that IHIT is well-resourced for all recent investigations. We have the support of our specialized policing partners, Lower Mainland Integrated (ITeams), and our dedicated homicide investigators.”

We are asking anyone with information about his murder to contact IHIT Information Line at 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or by email at ihitinfo@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.
