India, April 21 -- A Canadian man who shot and killed an Indian MBA student along with another victim in 2022 was found guilty of first-degree murder on Monday. Richard Edwin killed 21-year-old Kartik Vasudev and 35-year-old Elijah Eleazar Mahepath two days apart in 2022. Both Vasudev and Mahepath were strangers to Edwin, whose lawyers argued that he was suffering from a mental illness at the time of the unprovoked attacks.

Kartik Vasudev was shot dead on April 7, 2022, outside the Sherbourne subway station in Toronto. Originally from Ghaziabad, the 21-year-old had moved to Canada in January 2022 to pursue an MBA.
