Oliver Karafa arrest

Hamilton police said the victims and the accused knew each other but we don’t know the nature of their relationship.

Karafa and Li fled to eastern Europe within 24 hours of the murder.

The pair was arrested in Budapest earlier this month. The extradition process is currently underway.
