June 6, 2024
A man convicted of murdering a 13-year-old Burnaby, B.C., girl has repeatedly told a pre-sentencing hearing that he didn’t kill her, after refusing to listen to his interpreter during an impact statement by the girl’s father.A portion of the recorded statement was being played to test equipment ahead of Friday’s sentencing hearing for Ibrahim Ali, who faces a life term for the 2017 killing.But Ali, who was appearing in B.C. Supreme Court by video link, refused to pick up the phone to listen to his interpreter, prompting a long exchange with Judge Lance Bernard who asked for an explanation.
