56-year-old woman, allegedly known to suspect, and man found dead in home July 16

One man is in custody after a double-homicide in Coquitlam, B.C., last week.
Maurio "Mo" Salehi, 54, of Richmond, is charged with two counts of first-degree murder.
The bodies of a 56-year-old Coquitlam woman and an Israeli man who arrived in Canada on July 14, were found in a home in the Westwood Plateau area of Coquitlam on July 16.
Salehi is alleged to have had a previous relationship with the female victim.
It took several hours for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team investigators to identify the victims and then several days to ensure their families had been notified.
Salehi is expected to appear in court on Thursday.
