Police search for weapons after Tamil teen slain

Adrian Morrow, Madeleine White, Robyn Doolittle

Staff Reporters

Police are asking Scarborough residents to check their lawns and sidewalks for weapons investigators believe may have been dumped after a Sri Lankan male was killed in an afternoon swarming yesterday.

Around 12:30 p.m., the victim, who has since been identified as 19-year-old Annushath Indrakanthan, was attacked outside a Daisy Mart in a strip plaza on Bonis Ave., near Birchmount Rd. and Sheppard Ave. E.

As many as five men beat him with several weapons, including a hammer, and stabbed him.

Investigators are looking for 4-5 suspects who were seen fleeing the attack, in a white Ford car.

"The car was seen going north on Birchmount and east on Huntingwood and there are reports objects were being thrown from the vehicle," said Det. Sgt. Dan Nielsen.

Specifically, police are asking residents to keep a look out for "an edged weapon" or a "blunt instrument."

A car matching the description has been recovered and is undergoing forensic testing.

This is the second time in a little over a week, a young Tamil man has been beaten and killed in northern Scarborough.

Less than three kilometres away from the site of yesterday's slaying, Kristian Thanapalan, 22, was beaten to death by a group of Tamil youths and men, armed with baseball or cricket bats, in the early-morning hours of July 11.

Police are still trying to determine the identity of the assailants in the first attack and whether the beating deaths are linked.

While area residents are bemoaning the rising violence, the city's Tamil community is calling for an end to the murders.

"These killings must stop," said David Poopalapillai, spokesman for the Canadian Tamil Congress. "We don't want to see another losing a young life."

Poopalapillai said there was much Tamil youth violence in the late 1990s and early 2000s, and that youth organizations stepped up to try to curb it. He said it might take similar youth-driven anti-violence programs "to put an end to this once and for all."

"There is no reason for people to get killed in Canada. It's one of the safest countries in the world," he said. "All of the families who came here from Sri Lanka came here for their children's welfare."

Hours after yesterday's killing, police remained at the scene, collecting evidence. A pile of clothes next to an overturned trash can remained outside the convenience store.

Kanthan Katharamalana, who works at the Daisy Mart and was the first to call police, was finally allowed to leave around 5:30 p.m.

He said he didn't witness the fatal beating outside the store, and he didn't see the men involved.

"One lady came in and told me to call 911," he said.

Area residents said violence has become more common in the last two or three years.

"It happens every year," said one man who declined to give his name, as he stood just steps from where the getaway vehicle was parked. "Last time, there were (Emergency Task Force) officers with body armour."

Last year, Bonis Ave. was the scene of two violent attacks within days of each other. On May 24, a 17-year-old boy was stabbed in the head near Birchmount Rd. He survived.

On May 28, Levis Taylor, 17, was shot to death behind the Agincourt Mall as he walked to meet his girlfriend, who was leaving work.

Victim of brutal stabbing identified

Toronto's 30th homicide victim of the year now has a name and face: Annushath (Annu) Indrakanthan was only 19 years old and had planned to attend Ryerson University this fall.

On Monday, police got a call at 12:35 p.m. They responded to a commercial plaze at 7 Bonis Ave., which is north of the intersection of Birchmount Road and Sheppard Avenue East.

Officers located a man suffering from obvious trauma. The victim was taken to hospital via emergency run, where he succumbed to his injuries," police said Tuesday in a news release.

Police said there were four or five men in a white Ford vehicle parked across the street.

"Two of the men, armed with an edged weapon and an unknown additional weapon, exited the vehicle. The two men attacked the victim," police said.

Reports from Monday suggested that Indrakanthan was stabbed in the chest and stomach and bashed in the head, possibly with a hammer.

After attacking their victim, the vehicle reportedly when north on Birchmount then east on Huntingwood Drive. Police managed to confiscate the vehicle on Monday, but not nab any suspects.

"Objects were being thrown from the vehicle," police said.

They are asking any citizens living in the area to not handle any items they might see but to instead call police.

People are asked to call Det. Sgt. Dan Neilsen at 416-808-7398, Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477), online at www.222tips.com, or to text TOR and a message to CRIMES (274637).

Meanwhile, at the crime scene, businessman Steve Ali said it's not the first time he's seen that type of violence in the neighbourhood.

"I used to let anybody use my washroom, and now I won't," he said, adding anyone who does now has to present ID.

'Far too many deaths'

Tamil youths participate in gangs just 'to be tough,' insider says as violence claims another victim

Jul 22, 2009 04:30 AM

Robyn Doolittle

Noor Javed

STAFF REPORTERS

Tamil gangs aren't really gangs at all.

Typically, they don't sell drugs or steal. There is no hierarchy or affiliated colours. And members, usually around 16 to 18 years old, don't carry handguns.

In fact, says one youth, these "gangs" are so unconnected, they don't even know where to look for weapons.

"So they carry what they can get, kitchen knives and hammers or whatever," said "J," a 20-year-old who admits he joined a Tamil gang after immigrating to Canada two years ago.

Standing in the back parking lot of a grungy Scarborough plaza, where on Monday afternoon 19-year-old Annu Indrakanthan was beaten to death, J says teens join a gang for protection and to feel important.

"More than anything," said another man nearby, "it's just a way to be tough or show off for a girl or something. You know, or if someone is having a beef with another group, you go fight them."

It could be over something as simple as a snarky Facebook post. "Back home, that's how you deal with things," said J. "Some people think they're still back home."

When J moved to Canada two years ago, his father sat him down with a stern warning:

"Canada is a wonderful place. It's a place for freedom, but it can also ruin you," J recalls him saying.

He fell to the temptation.

His first year living in Toronto, he started skipping school, smoking drugs, drinking and fighting rivals. When his parents became distraught, he told his new friends he had to find new company. Those friends were furious.

"As revenge, they recruited my little brother," said J. Two months ago, his teenage brother was killed in another Tamil fight. J has heard some of those men are looking for him, so he asked that neither his name nor his brother's name be published.

On Monday around 12:30 p.m., J says he was driving by the Bonis Ave. plaza when he spotted his friend, Indrakanthan, bleeding on the pavement.

Police say the 19-year-old had been jumped by two others, who witnesses say are also Tamils. One was carrying an "edged" weapon, the other a "blunt instrument." The suspects fled the scene with two others in a white Ford Contour, throwing the weapons out the window as they drove, police say.

Det. Sgt. Dan Nielsen says he believes Indrakanthan was targeted. But why? Nielsen says they are looking at possible connections with other recent Tamil-on-Tamil attacks.

On July 11, 22-year-old Kristian Thanapalan was swarmed and beaten to death by a group carrying baseball or cricket bats. The assailants in that attack have still not been identified.

"At this point, there's no evidence that they are linked, so far," said Nielsen.

But the similarities in the attack have locals talking. J, who knew both Thanapalan and Indrakanthan, doesn't believe they have anything to do with each other.

"Yeah, I've heard that, too. But I don't think so," he said.

Indrakanthan grew up in an upscale Malvern neighbourhood. Friends say he excelled at math and accounting, and was "one of the smart kids" at West Hill Collegiate Institute.

The eldest of three boys, his parents doted on him. His father bought Indrakanthan a green Pathfinder SUV and made sure he was always driving on a full tank of gas.

It was around this time that things started to change.

Indrakanthan started skipping class. He was failing Grade 12. His family says he forgot to take one credit, so he enrolled at Stephen Leacock. Here, Indrakanthan made new friends, some of whom were in the "wrong crowd." Indrakanthan offered to drive these friends everywhere.

A leading theory among the teens gathered at the plaza yesterday afternoon is that Indrakanthan's assailants spotted the teen driving some rivals.

Police say Indrakanthan had never been in trouble with the law. He had been accepted at York University this fall and planned to study business management.

For the most part, the teen kept to himself, preferring to spend his time playing computer games at home, said his aunt Santhy Vygunthavasan.

"He was such a good kid. He was the first-born. He was the favourite," the 28-year-old said in the family's living room yesterday.

Sitting on an adjacent couch, Indrakanthan's father, Rasiah, tries to talk about his son, but breaks down.

"He can't right now," said Nevi Indrakanthan, the middle son at 16. The youngest, 10-year-old Venu, buries his face in his hands and sobs.

"He wouldn't hurt a fly," Nevi said. "He's a child at heart. You can ask anybody who knows him."

The idea of gang violence in the Tamil community is not new, said Sri-Guggan Sri-Skanda-rajah, a board member with the Canadian Tamil Youth Development Centre, CanTYD.

Sri-Skanda-rajah said he has worked with the youth group for the past 11 years.

The group runs an outreach program in schools in Scarborough to work with marginalized Tamil youths.

Gang violence peaked in the 1990s, he said, but the latest spate of violence has many in the community worried.

"We are now experiencing a resurgence of violence and that is turning out to be problematic," said Sri-Skanda-rajah.

"We are very concerned. In the space of these few months, there have been far too many deaths."

Some of the Tamil-on-Tamil fighting, he admits, could be the remnants of violence that many youth left behind in Sri Lanka.

"But we can't let the violence continue here," he said.
