The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) has made an arrest in the homicide of Cody Mostat from March 25, 2022 in Langley with charges of second degree murder being laid.

Background: On March 25, 2022, at 8:49 p.m., Langley RCMP responded to a report of an unconscious man in the 20400-block of 88 Avenue in Langley. Officers attended the scene and attempted life saving efforts, but sadly, the man died on scene. The victim was identified as 30-year old Cody Mostat of Langley. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) took conduct of the investigation and worked closely in partnership with the Langley RCMP, the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of British Columbia (CFSEU-BC) and the Integrated Forensic Identification Section (IFIS).

Following a six-month investigation, IHIT investigators identified Justin Bos as a suspect in the homicide of Mr. Mostat.

On September 21, 2022, Bos was arrested by IHIT for the murder of Cody Mostat. Bos was taken into custody safely and without incident.

On September 22, 2022, the BC Prosecution Service (BCPS) laid a second degree murder charge against Bos in relation to the homicide.

"Today’s outcome was the result of six months of hard work and perseverance by the investigating team," says Sergeant Timothy Pierotti of IHIT. "We’re thankful to our partners for their ongoing dedication."

As this file is now before the courts, there will be no media availability at this time.

He urged the government to adopt the Conservatives’ economic action plan, including immediately approving 500 major development projects currently awaiting permits.
