An Indigenous group in Saskatchewan is calling on the Vancouver Police Department to further investigate the death of a 24-year-old woman whose remains were found in a vacant house in the city nearly two years after she was reported missing.

The Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations says Chelsea Poorman's family deserves to know what happened to her before contractors working at the home discovered her remains in April.

Police have said an investigation into the death of the woman from the Kawacatoose First Nation was launched immediately and officers have met with some of her family members.

Investigators believe Poorman likely died on the property the night she disappeared in September of 2020, or shortly thereafter.
