The family of a murdered Surrey woman is appealing for public help to solve the crime.

For over a year the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) has investigated the death of Aisha Harouya, whose life was cut short at age 21.

On July 25, 2022, her body was found in a parking lot in the 11100-block of 124 Street, in Bridgeview, the result of what IHIT and the BC Coroners Service deem foul play.

Homicide detectives determined Harouya was last seen alive in Surrey on July 24, 2022, in the area of 100 Avenue and Whalley Boulevard.

On Tuesday (Jan. 9), her family appealed to the public for witnesses to come forward.
