Tears welled up in the eyes of the sole survivor of a mass killing as he contemplated life without his wife and kids — as well as the plight of the man now charged in their deaths, a family friend said Friday.
OTTAWA - Tears welled up in the eyes of the sole survivor of a mass killing as he contemplated life without his wife and kids - as well as the plight of the man now charged in their deaths, a family friend said Friday.
Febrio De-Zoysa, a 19-year-old international student who attended Algonquin College and recently moved in with the family, faces six counts of first-degree murder and one charge of attempted murder.YouTube confirmed the name of De-Zoysa's account on the platform and said it has been removed. Other social media accounts with the same handle have also been scrubbed off the internet.
The funeral expenses alone are likely to be hefty, given the cost of potentially repatriating the bodies to Sri Lanka.The dead included 35-year-old Darshani Ekanayake and her four children, the youngest only two-and-a-half months old. Harpreet Chhabra spoke to The Canadian Press from Mexico the day after learning what had transpired inside the house.
Sri Lanka's consulate general in Toronto issued a warning to parents Friday on Facebook “to pay more attention to their children during their transition and integration into the new societal and psychological environment in foreign countries.” Therika Ekanayake, who is also from Sri Lanka, said she showed up to the vigil to pay her respects to the family. Ekanayake, who is not related to the victim and did not know the family, said the community is shaken.
