Veteran police inspector 'disturbed' by Ontario abduction case
The detective overseeing the Ontario Provincial Police investigation into the abduction of a 37-year-old woman from a Wasaga Beach home one year ago is both hopeful and afraid for her.
“That would be, I think, the definition of disturbing. We all rightly expect where we reside and live to be a haven of safety for us, and certainly how could any of us expect to be forcibly removed by three disguised males in police gear? This is very disturbing," he added. On the evening of Jan. 12, 2022, the 37-year-old woman was abducted by three men who were impersonating police officers.
Hajtamiri's family has said there were multiple GPS tracking devices found on her vehicle prior to the attack in the parking garage. Police have not confirmed or denied there were trackers on the vehicle. “Motives are explored and investigated and they form part of the investigation, and, as such, I can’t speak to them in order to protect the integrity of the investigation,” said Graham. “But I certainly can say that there is no evidence that Elnaz Hajtamiri was involved in any form of criminal activity.”
Singh and Binner both were charged with attempted murder and attempted kidnapping. Singh pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and was sentenced to time served. He was deported as a result of an existing federal order. Graham joined York Regional Police today for a news conference marking the one-year anniversary of Hajtamiri’s abduction, and to announce a reward of $100,000 offered by the police forces for information leading to the location of Hajtamiri.
