DNA Evidence Links Accused to Victims | Vancouver News

Author: The Daily News Now! September 12, 2026 Duration: 1:44

In a gripping Vancouver murder trial, Gursimran Sahota and Tanvir Khakh face charges for the July 2022 killings of Meninder Dhaliwal and Satindera Gill. Forensic evidence—including Dhaliwal’s blood and DNA found on both defendants’ clothing and shoes—has been central to the prosecution’s case, with experts calling the odds of contamination or coincidence “astronomically low.” RCMP Corporal Andrew Norris testified about collecting ballistic evidence and overseeing the seizure of items from a black Chrysler, including batting gloves and masks, all pointing to a chillingly coordinated crime. With closing arguments imminent, the courtroom is holding its breath as the fate of two men hangs in the balance.
