Arrest Made In Assault Of Elnaz Hajtamiri That Happened Weeks Before Her Abduction

Investigators with the York Regional Police #2 District Criminal Investigations Bureau have identified the two suspects wanted in connection with the attack against victim Elnaz HAJTAMIRI that occurred in the City of Richmond Hill.

A Canada- wide arrest warrant has been issued for one of the suspects and the other has been taken into custody.

On December 20, 2021, officers responded to an address on King William Crescent, which is in the area of Yonge Street and Bantry Avenue, for a call that a female victim was attacked and struck with a frying pan in an underground parking garage. The incident was interrupted by a concerned citizen and the suspects fled in a vehicle.  The victim was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Through the investigation, officers determined that the suspect vehicle had been stolen from the area of Finch Avenue and Don Mills Road in Toronto. The vehicle was recovered.

Through the investigation and evidence obtained, officers were able to identify the suspects. On April 13, 2022, a warrant was executed at a residence in the City of Brampton and one of the suspects was arrested.

The second suspect remains outstanding and a Canada-wide warrant has been issued for his arrest. Investigators are asking anyone with information on the location of the wanted suspect or any information on the investigation to come forward.
