On Dec. 7, 2022, Surrey RCMP had responded to a report of a stabbing in the 12700-block of 66 Avenue. They found Harpreet Kaur Gill, in medical distress from multiple stab wounds. Despite the best efforts of first responders, she died in hospital.

“Incidents of intimate partner violence have a profound effect on families and communities,” says Sergeant Timothy Pierotti of IHIT. “We’re thankful for the great work being done by Surrey RCMP Victim Services and the Ministry of Children and Family Development who continue to support the family and the community.”
