Police say Ibrahim Ali, 28, arrived in Canada just three months before Shen was found dead in a Burnaby park.

Immediately, Superintendent Donna Richardson said little about Ali, a Syrian national and permanent resident of Canada, although she agreed with a questioner that the case was “not related to religious ideology.”
Suspect charged in Marrisa Shen murder
Ibrahim Ali, 28, is accused of first-degree murder, the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team announced on Monday. Superintendent Donna Richardson, the officer in charge of IHIT, called for the public to remain calm and not make generalisations about the revelation that Ali was a refugee.
News Vancouver, September 10, 2018:
More than a year after 13-year-old Marrisa Shen was found murdered in Burnaby’s Central Park, a suspect has been arrested and charged in the shocking crime.
The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team confirmed one count of first-degree murder has been approved against Ibrahim Ali, a 28-year-old Syrian national who arrived in Canada just a few months before the killing.
New evidence put Ali on investigators’ radar two weeks ago, and officers arrested him Friday in Burnaby. He remains in police custody.

On Monday, Shen’s relatives released a statement through IHIT thanking the public for the hundreds of tips that were submitted to investigators and the police for following up on each of them.
“We hope that justice will now be served and that Marrisa can finally be at peace in heaven,” the family said.
Court records show the offence date for Ali’s charge is July 18, 2017, the last day Shen was seen alive. The teenager’s body was discovered in the early morning hours of July 19, not long after her worried family reported her missing.
The crime stunned her Burnaby community, and triggered the largest IHIT investigation undertaken since the homicide team’s inception. Supt. Donna Richardson said 2,300 investigative tasks have been completed so far in the probe, which is still ongoing.
Police announced early on that the murder appeared to be random, and Richardson said that has not changed over the last 14 months.
“We still believe that this crime was a random act, meaning that Marrisa did not know the subject and vice-versa,” she said.
“As far as motive is concerned … I am not able to discuss these matters in order to protect our future judicial proceedings.”
Though authorities have not commented on the specific circumstances of the murder, IHIT was adamant that the crime had nothing to do with religious ideology.
Ali is a permanent resident who was not known to police and does not have a criminal record.
Shen’s murder left some Burnaby residents feeling unsafe in the city’s parks, a fear local RCMP have tried to assuage through an increased police presence, including more foot patrols, bike patrols and vehicle patrols.
Burnaby RCMP Chief Supt. Deanne Burleigh said those high-visibility patrols are continuing “to ensure that everyone can continue to feel safe in our parks.”
“We’re dedicated to safety in our community,” Burleigh said.

Canadian Law Enforcement are either asleep, stupid or…Are being TOLD what to say by “Higher-Uppers”!!!!
You’ll wind up looking like Europe!!
Us lowly minions don’t matter to the Liberal elites-I mean who the hell are we anyways? We’re just the taxpayers who fund their lifestyles. We have to make way for their grand vision of a world without borders.
A few thousand or even millions of raped, beaten, dead Canadians, Swedes, Germans, Brits, etc won’t get in the way of one Ummah, I mean one world all united in peace, love and happiness, even though groups of people really hate and want to kill each other.
Trifles, our superiors know better than us. Don’t bore them with your facts and reality-checks. We just lack the foresight that only gifted people like Merkel, Trudeau, Theresa May, et al possess. Islam is the future, it is inevitable, don’t fight it-just accept the Diversity washing over you.
Dudley Doright and the RCMP do little to track muslim scum when they come to Canada. They wait until a murders happens before any action can take place.
If I imported a venomous cobra into the country and someone was bitten by it and died, I would be charged for the death.
But when the lieturds in the government import lots and lots of moslem savages into our country AND THEY END UP KILLING PEOPLE, how come those lieturds were never charged?
Mayor Hodges in MN hires a muslim as a cop. He kills a white girl. I don’t blame the snake. Hodges needs to be up on first degree murder
PM’s agenda.
the motive is he comes from a shithole country and due to his pedophile’s teachings, he considers infidel children free game, seems religious to me – so either shitslam is a religion or it is a political cult system, cannot be both
No Islam is not a ‘political cult’ it is a crime syndicate far older than the mafia.
Mafia must have been inspired by jihadis as they have similar rules for apostasy .
Islam is indeed is a full fledged religion with holy scriptures, a messiah, prophet, followers and history. It is indeed a cult which also acts as a full functioning tyrannical government to it’s followers and non-followers alike. It is a plague on society and must be eradicated completely.
The motive is still a mystery. They want you to believe it was a “RANDOM ACT.”
Haven’t the people had ENOUGH of the BS YET?
Discerning the motive is always a challenge for the Muslim apologists within governments and their agencies. The never-ending hiding of the truth spread by the feeble-minded and flaccid authorities, they, gutlessly, choose to remain underfoot of the West’s, progressive despotism. Their parroting the words of their tyrannical overlords illustrates they are mindless and wanton drones.
Agree. But They are following their perfect man – Moham-mad. And if you dare expose truth about him they will keel you !
just like the jihadis in Indianapolis are doing http://bit.ly/2rVCN7E
Ain’t that the truth, Suresh.
More proof that islam pandering federal and state governments are part of an anti-American crime syndicate. Legislators have been perpetrating acts of war against America by flooding our neighborhoods with sworn documented enemies of our country.
They must be apprehended and charged with treason.
@dad1927…”Its workplace violence” Oh no! There’s no falling-on-the-floor-flailing-rolling-holding-my-busting-gut-can’t-catch-my-breath-laughing icon. (Supreme Sarcasm)
It’s just some colateral damage. The islamization of the west is a slow and painful process lead by western politicians and elites, so you must remain calm and not make generalizations, islamophobia will not be tolerated!. this was just asian crime, it happens a lot in Europe (asian gangs), chinks are very violent (remember pearl harbor, kung-fu movies…). there is nothing to worry about, at the end there will be peace, islamic peace. By the way it’s 9/11 again, happy celebrations to all
On 9/11/2001 MORE THAN 3,000 INNOCENT PEOPLE WERE MURDERED by moslem savages.
Since that fateful day, HOW MANY MORE INNOCENT LIVES HAD BEEN BUTCHERED in the West, by moslem savages?
Someone should kidnap Turdeau, dress him up in a gimp suit w/mouthball and drop him off in San FranFreaksco on a Friday night.
“ ‘We’re dedicated to safety in our community,’ Burleigh said.”
Oh yes, Deanne Burleigh … You surely did one hell of a job, protecting your community. What “safety” are you referencing … The “Safety of moslems”? I am simply disgusted, beyond the pale. disgusted.
In one of Anne Marie Waters’ recent videos she suggests an EU economic agreement with JP tied JP’s acceptance of the agreement w/allowing f’ing muslums as refugees to their island state. Have you heard anything about this? The EU propaganda documents on the agreement make no mention of such a provision.
Forkin’ white Europeans want the entire world to be moslem loving islamophiliacs, just like they are. I can believe that story … as … well, isn’t that what white Europeans are all about … FORCE the rest of the world to love moslems? Force human beings to feed, clothe, and shelter moslems? It’s time that the English elected politicians that will enforce the will of the people. Brexit does NOT mean paying money to White European moslem lovers. Cut the cord. Spit on Europe’s grave.
Liberals love their Muslim pets. It gives them a warm feeling inside to know they’ve flooded the country with these unwanted invaders. What these migrants do after is of no concern to them-don’t try to take away their warm fuzzy feelings or they’ll call you a racist and a hatemonger. If people end up raped and killed well that’s just too fkg bad for you now isn’t it? Keep questioning Trudy and he’ll sick his goons on you.
And when the liberals are on their knees with a muslim assassin holding a knife to their kneck, they will realize the error of their ways as their life’s blood flows out their slit throat.
I’d bet they think Muslims will LOVE them for letting them destroy their country.
No they’ll convert to islum long before that happens.
Have you seen the latest out of the UK ; the bobbies are now asking people to report any harsh words as hateful speech. I don’t believe it’s a crime – yet, but just give it time. Meanwhile, real reported crime must reach some threshold in order to be investigated – nearly a week later, otherwise, it’s simply ignored ( personal theft ie. ).
Over here, when the Mighty *ick makes 103 a law, you can bet his goons will be on you, just like that dangerous gramma in Quebec, you know, the one Trudy the Mighty said didn’t belong in Canada, needed to get her ” mind right ”
Bernier is going to launch his new party this week, and after utterly poo-pooing the notion of an early election, the Wonder Dog is considering a snapper for the fall ; and why not ? The people don’t overly object to be used for fiddle practice ; 60% still think he would be the better PM. Baaahhh, baaahhh.
It isn’t about “warm and fuzzy feelings”, Rick. THIS is what it is about:
The so-called “refugee” invasion and the continued toleration of the INVASION of aliens (legal and illegal) – particularly from Third World countries – constitute the “shock troops” of the globalist, oligarch New World Ordure cabal. The plan: destroy whatever hegemony the nations of the West still retain. Destroy – with their “diversity” – their ability to be self-governing. Destroy their sovereignty. Cause as much strife, economic hardship, crime, mayhem and murder as possible. The brainwashed zombies of the Left are just the current “useful idiots” helping this to occur.
When the situation gets bad enough the sheeple of the once-free nations of the West will beg their so-called “leaders” to “do something”. Then the NWO cabal will come out with their “solution”: WORLD GOVERNMENT. (Translated: enslavement of all who are not part of their cabal or the government drones that do their dirty work.)

Was this girl an Asian? I hope the Asian community in Canada decides to seek justice in her name!
This young girl was a REAL ASIAN, 13 years old…
Immediately, Superintendent Donna Richardson said little about Ali, a Syrian national and permanent resident of Canada, although she agreed with a questioner that the case was “not related to religious ideology”.
Best thing that could happen would be for the perp to be sent to China! Go to an indoctrination camp for Moslems.
I’d imagine the muslum would get a bullet in the head courtesy of the Chinese government.
Why? She was a Canadian resident, if not citizen. Not China’s problem. Any idiot who immigrates to a country ruled by Sharia law shouldn’t expect the west to come rescue them either.
a loss of a beautiful girl
“Superintendent Donna Richardson, the officer in charge of IHIT, called for the public to remain calm and not make generalisations about the
revelation that Ali was a refugee.” Yes, don’t make “generalizations.” Why, that would be “racist” to do so. And it woud offend the immigrants’ family too. I’m sure the Superintendent will urge everyone to accept the defendant’s reason for the crime, which will probably be that she refused his offer of sex.
Who wants to bet the muslum vermin raped her and the authorities aren’t releasing that little detail?
Poor girl and we all know she won’t be the last girl to be killed by f’ing muslum vermin in Canuckastan.
lets hope!
Let’s hope you get gang raped by some buff gay boys until you like it.
Hmmm. Recent subscriber and first time poster. Please go easy on me.
Feed the killer pork until he chokes on it from lack of air.
‘Not related to religious ideology,’ spoken by another devout apologist for the Cult of pedophilia, rape, murder, and racism. Denial, the favorite mindset of Islam’s steadfast devotees, the immoral Liberals. Under watch by the devoted Muslim true believer, Justin Trudeau and his not only lackluster party but an enemy of Western Democracy, meaning, the remnants of its decomposing carcass. The everyday Canadian, non-Muslim is likely unaware of this heinous murder and rape of this young girl. Not unlike the American and other Western mainstream media, censoring the truth regarding Islam’s murderous depravity is by deliberate.
Murdered. No mention of a rape. But it seems likely that sexual assault preceded the murder.
May not be. Perhaps the Muslim refugee was demanding his $10.5 million Jihad bonus from her, mistakingly believing she was an alt-left feminazis. When she could not provide the cash, he probably became enraged at such obvious bigotry towards refugees and killed her. If he can prove she mentioned the words Muslim, I slam, Qu’ran or Mohammed he will be acquitted on grounds of self defence, as implied by M103.
I carry a high visibility “patrol” too with 17 “officers” in the handle! But then, I live in the USA in a State where open carry is legal and encouraged! This little girl died at the hands of a Moslem animal. But the PC Canucks can’t say that. Might make JustaTruDope angry.
RIP Marissa Shen.
#carry!!! #republicans2018!!!
Canada welcomes these savages. If children get killed… like London’s Khan said, it’s part and parcel. Get used to it.
When is Canada going to hang Trudeau and his accomplices for bring these murdering savages into the country? Hang them high! They are the Fifth Column that destroys Canada from within, from high places. Hang them high.
Muslims, Megroes, Migrants, Mexicans and Mongrels all come from TURD world countries. This is actually normal over their.
But liebs and your government love the New World Odor on you.
Western government Neo-feudal elites only consider us as fodder and collateral damage.
Correct, Ken. The so-called “refugee” invasion and the continued toleration of the INVASION of aliens (legal and illegal) – particularly from Third World countries – constitute the “shock troops” of the globalist, oligarch New World Ordure cabal.

We don’t have enough information. It may very well be that Ali is just a loser and a misfit who could not adapt to a western country. Interestingly, he murdered a girl who comes from a hard working ethnic group.
The middle eastern people have no reputation for a hard work ethic. They have trouble blending in. Maybe that is the reason, not just a hostile religion.
Canadian authorities are attempting Jedi mind-control, but it’s effective mostly on themselves. “We don’t need to know Ali’s motives. Those aren’t the explanations we’re looking for. Nothing to see here. Move along.”
All Muslims learn the same teachings from the Quran, and therefore this is a sample of more to come. Islam cannot be alongside any non Muslim faith.
Maybe they should hand him over to the Asians for Bamboo torture, they will do a good justice than Canadian justice
I don’t think he will fair well where he is headed
Canada went rogue like Europe. Once trump build the wall he must also build a wall on the Canadian border.
So typical, a DEM LIED about his disability and the media covered for him.
Diabolical government murder by proxy.
Thank Allah that they found this poor suffering guy when they did. Can you imagine the mental anguish he has been going through probably for years. Insanity is not fun, just ask this guy, sexual expression denied for long periods does crazy things to Syrians as we have seen on numerous occasions ! Again I say, just ask this poor guy !
Our child prime minister knows all thes things so have no doubt he will (on Canada’s behalf) provide this guy wth the best legal help, the best medical and the best accommodations. Maybe even award him with $100,000 for wrongfully arresting him.
Tell us everyone, can you suggest anything else for Master Trudeau ?
Hey Defence Man, don’t be low-ball’n money bagsTurdo! Shhit boy gives at least $10.5 million ( unfortunately CDN$) in payments.. just ask Omar Khadr and his POS Lawyer.
They’re dedicated to safety??
Then why allow all those violent, subhuman savages from the Middle East int teir country??
The murdering Muslims just keep on keeping on while we do nothing but wring our hands.
In every WESTERN country where Muslims are in the minority, they are obsessed with minority rights.
In every ISLAMIC country with a Muslim majority, …there are no minority rights!
islam is NOT a religion of peace!!
islam is a sick and twisted terrorist ideology that is completely incompatible with western civilization!!
Deport all muslims, CITIZENS OR not, from the west at once!!
Ban all muslims from traveling to the west, …FOREVER
Implement muslim control, NOT gun control.
Defending your person, your family, your country from attack and invasion from those forcing a violent, terrorist, genocidal ideology on western civilization…is …not … islamophobia ….or racist. ….It is just common sense.
The people of Canada, Europe and Britain must throw down their treasonous leaders forcing this evil upon them.
…………………………..The USA just did, Nov. 2016!
The West does NOT need to allow thousands of backward, 7th century, unvetted and violent muslim savages into our countries that have ‘enshrined’ sexual slavery, rape, forced conversion, assault, murder and genocide in their FAKE religion!
Canada will give him 6 months in jail and counseling. He’ll be out by Christmas 2019 to rape and kill again!
If the attack on 9/11 had happened in the 50s, our response wouldn’t have been to invite more Mahamadens into the country.
Thank you Ms Geller for covering this horrific story. Our Prime Metrosexual Jihad Trudope won’t even mention this matter. Sadly I suspect the poor girl was subjected to sexual abuse before her murder. I hope that refugee is deported immediately; we can drop him off in the North Pole.
The killer here could easily be one of the terrorists Turdeau knowingly let in the country, or even one of those he paid money to. Either way one thing is sure, if this should be the case, the MSM and the RCMP will cover up the truth!
Hey, Justin……isn’t he one of yours? Methinks you have blood on your hands!
Throw away the key. Does this sight cover the many Canadians who murder Muslims for no reason other than hate. All murder show be condemned
After searching I find this is a place for hatred of Muslims. Only stories about Muslim crimes or hatred against those like Jewish organizations that try to stop the hatred. Many more Muslims are killed by Christians than Muslims killing Christians don’t reply I won’t be back
I came back. It’s refreshing to see that my condemnation of this site is the one that has the most likes. There are decent intelligent people out there. People who look at all viewpoints as I did when I read through this site. Facts are easy to ascertain if you want to find them. All the best. Love Barry. Now I won’t be back to this story
