Saskatoon murder victims family frustrated with delayed court proceedings – Saskatoon [Video]

The family of 23-year-old Alfred Okyere are hoping to get answers into his death soon, but are frustrated with continued delays into his accused killer’s court proceedings.

“It’s always adjournment [after] adjournment,” said Augustine Farley, Okyere’s brother-in law. “Up until now, we don’t know why it happened, still unanswered questions…Family members are concerned from back home, friends and relatives keep asking; absolutely nothing.”

Okyere was found by police at a business on the corner of Millar Avenue and 70th Street back on Jan. 20. When they arrived, police found Okyere suffering from stab wounds. He was taken to hospital where he later died.

Police say the suspect fled on scene but was found and arrested near 2nd Avenue South and Spadina Crescent East. Fifty-three-year-old Troy Leclair has been charged with first-degree murder, accused of killing Okyere.

Farley says the family is in a state of limbo as delays roll on.
