R. v. Lewis
Storyboard Text
- In April 1972, Parmjeet Sindhu, the daughter of a man named Santa Singh Tatlay, married Gurmail Sindhu. Tatlay didn't approve of the wedding because Gurmail was a "commoner." Tatlay was so outraged that he wanted them both dead.
- On October 23, 1972, at approximately 10:00 am, the newlyweds died in an explosion.
- The next day, the police found a cardboard box that had previously contained an electric kettle, as well as paper wrapping addressed to the deceased. The handwriting on the wrapping matches that of a man named James Lewis.
- The debris from the explosion contained metal fragments with nitrate residue. A nitrate based explosive called "forcite" was used at the Craigmont mine near Merritt, British Columbia, where both Tatlay and Lewis were employed.
- Six days prior to the explosion, Lewis and his friend, Brabant, drove to Kamloops to go shopping. According to Brabant, Lewis bought a cardboard box containing an electric kettle similar to the one found at the Sindhus' apartment.
- On October 19, Lewis invited Brabant to come to Kamloops with him again, this time to mail a parcel. When questioned, Brabant stated that the parcel looked exactly like the one Lewis had bought two days before.
