Investigators from the Major Collision Bureau have issued a Canada Wide Warrant for a Fail to Remain Collision from February 20, 2022, that occurred in the City of Mississauga and claimed the life of a Brampton woman.

On Sunday, February 20, 2022, 24-year-old Kavita Chodhary was walking along Derry Road East and began to cross the road at Cattrick Street when she was struck by a dark coloured vehicle. The vehicle and occupant fled the scene and did not stop to render any assistance to the victim.

Investigators have located and seized the vehicle involved, a black 2009 Honda Accord.

The man alleged to have committed this offence has been identified as 19-year-old Pawan Malik of the City of Brampton. A warrant for his arrest has been issued for:

Failure to Stop After Accident Resulting in Death

Investigators have confirmed that Mr. Malik fled the country soon after the incident. When he is located, the Crown intends to seek his extradition so that he may be prosecuted for the alleged offences.

Anyone with information on his whereabouts is asked to call investigators at the Major Collision Bureau (905) 453-2121, ext. 3710. Information may also be left anonymously by calling Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or visiting peelcrimestoppers.ca.

Alberta to introduce legislation to end seasonal time changes, premier says

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says the province plans to eliminate twice-a-year clock changes and remain on daylight time year-round, according to comments she made to Postmedia. Smith said the change would mean Albertans would no longer set clocks forward in the spring or back in the fall, instead staying on the current time throughout the year. On a practical level, that would result in darker mornings during winter months but extended daylight in the evening. The premier indicated legislation to implement the change is expected to be introduced later this week. Details of how the transitio
