File # 2020-39654

 On April 14th, Ishaan MUTNEJA of Chilliwack plead guilty and was sentenced for his part in the November 2020 Attempt Murder at the Sandman Signature Hotel.

Many will recall the somewhat bizarre events of November 17th, 2020, when a man and woman were found suffering from gunshot wounds outside the front entrance of the Sandman Signature Hotel in North Langley. A gold van was reported fleeing the scene and was found burning a short time later in Walnut Grove. Two males were seen jumping from the burning vehicle as it rolled through the intersection of 88th Avenue and 216th Street.

Joshua Mitchel PAZ, 24-years-old, plead guilty earlier this year in February.

PAZ and MUTNEJA have now both received the same sentence. For the Attempted Murder of the male victim, each received a prison sentence of 10 years and for the Aggravated Assault on the female, they were sentenced to six years prison. The two sentences are to be served concurrently.

Quick reporting of the events from the community culminated in both arrests and dash camera footage provided to police was vital in advancing this investigation.
