Syrian refugee charged with murder of 13-year-old BC girl

This is... or was... Marrisa Shen, a girl from Burnaby BC who didn't live to see her 14th birthday.

She was last seen leaving her apartment building around 1800 on 18 July 2017. Surveillance footage later showed the teenager entering a nearby Tim Hortons minutes after she left her apartment across from the city's Central Park. She stayed there for an hour and a half. Her family reported her missing to police at 2330, and her body was found in the brush in the southeast corner of the park a little more than an hour later. Police have not revealed how she was killed, nor if she was sexually assaulted.

Last Friday, Ibrahim Ali, 28, of Burnaby was charged with the first-degree murder of the young girl. The sum total of what the police and the lamestream media are saying about the accused is that he is "a Syrian national and permanent Canadian resident" who arrived in Canada "17 months ago". By my calendar, that would be around Valentine's Day of 2017, or about four months before Marrisa was killed. He was arrested in Burnaby on Sept. 7.

Disregarding M-103, Walt has some innocent questions: What is Mr Ali's religion? Is he by any chance a follower of the Prophet? Is he one of the 50,000 Syrian refugees that the arch-virtue-signaller Justin Trudeau, brought to Canada in a fit of misguided humanitarianism? If not, how did he get to be a permanent resident so quickly? What was Mr Ali's employment status at the time of his arrest? Was he working, or sponging off Canadian taxpayers like so many of the other 49,999?

A prize will be given for the first reader to spot the word "refugee" in any version of this story appearing in the Canadian media. Send a .pdf file or screenshot to Ed. at the usual address. Earliest time stamp wins.

UPDATE ADDED 1800: The contest announced above is over. Our very own Ed. hunted up the Vancouver Sun and found "Ibrahim Ali, 28, charged with first-degree murder of Burnaby teen Marrisa Shen", which includes this paragraph: Ali is a Syrian national and a permanent resident who came to Canada 17 months ago, Richardson said. She did not know whether he was a privately-sponsored or government-assisted refugee, but believed he does have family in Burnaby and is employed. As if there was any doubt about the "refugee" part.... The last two words came as a surprise though.

FURTHER VIEWING, added 11/9/18: Here's the report (with full credit to the Vancouver Sun) by Sheila Gunn Reid of The Rebel.Media.

Ezra Levant comments on Muslim attack on Canadian soldiers

Walt wasn't the only one to take note of the refusal of the Canadian meeja and Toronto police to make any connection between Monday's terrorist attack on a Canadian Armed Forces recruiting centre in Toronto and the religion of the attacker. See "2 Canuck soldiers stabbed by Muslim terrorist ... IN TORONTO!", WWW 14/3/16.

Toronto police chief Saunders had to admit, the next morning that the words uttered by Ayanie Hassan Ali (pictured) that caused the cops so much "concern" were "Allah made me do it!" But, Chief Saunders warned, we'd better not get into "that Islamophobia thing". Wouldn't be politically correct, you know, to mention that Allah is what Muslims call the One God that we supposedly all worship. Mr. Ali is a Muslim. His religion is called Islam. That's the word that no good pro-diversity Canadian will say.

Ezra Levant, of course, is not that kind of Canadian. He is not afraid to call a spade a spade, or a knife-wielding Muslim an Islamic extremist. Here's what Mr. Levant wrote in his blog today, under the heading "Islam: The word Canada’s police and media refuse to say".

Yesterday a 27-year-old Muslim man walked into a Canadian Armed Forces recruiting office in North Toronto and started stabbing soldiers, saying that he was doing it for Allah, the Muslim god. But at a press conference, Toronto Police Chief Mark Saunders got whiny at the mere suggestion that a Muslim committing terrorism in the name of Islam might be... an Islamic terrorist. It was weird to watch.

This terrorist was born in Canada. But he decided to hate us and kill us, starting with symbols of our country. What did this? Well, the one thing so terrifying that Chief Saunders and the CBC and most of the rest of the media won’t dare even name: Islam.

2 Canuck soldiers stabbed by Muslim terrorist ... IN TORONTO!

LATEST NEWS: Walt was lucky he didn't make bets on the suspect's name being "Mohammed". (See update below.) In fact he's Ayanie Hassan Ali, shown here in a picture released by Toronto's finest(?). He has been charged with one count of attempted murder, two counts of assault with weapon, one count of weapons dangerous and one count of aggravated assault. According to Inspector Knacker, Mr. Ali is a Canadian, born in Montréal and now living in Toronto (as Her Majesty's guest, since yesterday).

No mention was made of Mr. Ali's religion. However, sez Toronto's top cop, he shouted "Allah told me to do this, Allah told me to come here and kill people." Lifetime pct (taking into account being wrong about the name) still .989.

ORIGINAL STORY, called in by Agent 3 yesterday:

Toronto police Chief Mark Saunders says a 27-year-old man is under arrest after two members of the Canadian Forces were stabbed in north Toronto Monday afternoon. A man walked into a federal building, which houses a Canadian Armed Forces recruitment centre, pulled out a knife and attacked the person behind the counter. The attacker attempted to move farther into the building, but was taken down by a group of between six and eight soldiers. Two soldiers reportedly suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Chief Saunders refused to divulge any information about the suspect, except for his age and gender, but did say that the suspect uttered "certain comments that are of concern". Agent 3 suggests that the "comments" might have been "Allahu akbar!" or words to that effect. All the police chief would say is that his minions are "strongly considering the possibility that the attack was an act of terrorism."

WWW will bring you an update just as soon as the PC police and censors at the CBC have figured out how to spin the story.

UPDATE 15/3/16 -- Just as we predicted (lifetime pct .989), the Toronto Sun reports (14/6/16. 7:06 PM EDT): A brazen knife attack that sent two Canadian soldiers to hospital was disturbing enough, but police sources say it was the attacker uttering the word "Allah" that prompted Toronto Police to call in terror experts.

Chief Mark Saunders told reporters outside of the federal building at 4900 Yonge St., north of Sheppard Ave., Monday that the male suspect used "certain comments" that were as concerning as the violent attack. He did not elaborate, but several police sources say witnesses told them "Allah" was used.

"Some heard him say, 'Praise Allah' and others heard 'Allah' or 'Aly,'" a police source told the Sun. "Several heard the man use this terminology. It’s not something you take a chance on and this is why the call was made to the police agencies who handle terror issues."

The suspect is still unnamed, but Walt is having trouble getting bets against "Mohammed". No word on his nationality, ethnicity, religion or status in Canada. Can you spell "refugee", boys and girls? I knew you could!
