British Columbia Supreme Court judge orders Ibrahim Ali, improved mentally, to transfer from hospital to pretrial detention centre prior to mandatory life sentence without parole.
A British Columbia Supreme Court judge ruled that Ibrahim Ali, convicted of first-degree murder, should be transferred from a forensic psychiatric hospital to the North Fraser pretrial detention centre. Justice Lance Bernard's decision was based on the psychiatrist's assessment that Ali has significantly improved and no longer requires hospital detention, as there is no evidence of an underlying psychotic illness. Ali will remain at the detention centre until his sentencing, which will result in a mandatory life sentence without the possibility of parole for 25 years.
