A girl charged with first degree murder in connection to the murder of a man found near a burning vehicle near Morrin has been granted freedom after posting bail.
The Calgary Herald reported that on Thursday, September 12, a youth, who cannot be named under provisions of the Youth Justice Act, was granted freedom and released into the custody of a relative. Among the conditions of her release is that she must abstain from drugs and alcohol.
The Herald reports that her trial is set for next spring.
The youth and another person, Dylan Donald Howard of Munson, were charged in connection with the October 16, 2017 murder of Fazal Rehman of Calgary. Rehman’s body was found near a burning car near Morrin, just north of Drumheller.
The youth was originally charged as an accessory after the fact, but her charges were upgraded to first-degree murder last year.
