Surrey Man Marc Nijjer Charged With With Assault Of 18-Year-Old Syrian Immigrant

Darpan News Desk, 01 Mar, 2018 11:46 AM
    Charges have been laid against one man after he allegedly assaulted a young man from Syria who was new to Canada.
     
     
    Shortly before noon on November 16th, Surrey RCMP was called to the 13700 block of 72nd Avenue after an assault occurred. An 18 year old boy, who is a recent immigrant from Syria, was elbowed in the face by the alleged suspect for no apparent reason. Thankfully the victim only received minor injuries.
     
     
    Now charged with one count of Assault Causing Bodily Harm is Marc NIJJER, 52 years old of Surrey. NIJJER is scheduled to make his first appearance in Surrey court on March 8th, 2018.
     
     
    Thanks to assistance from the public after an appeal was made to help identify the suspect, officers were able to forward the investigation, says Corporal Scotty Schumann. Police are grateful for any help, no matter how insignificant it may seem. 
     
     
    Sometimes that little bit of information is all that’s needed to solve a crime.
