Source: OPPDate: Fri Dec 12 08:58:26 MST 2025
(OWEN SOUND, ON) Three individuals have been extradited to Canada to face charges stemming from a homicide investigation conducted by the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) and the Owen Sound Police Service (OSPS).
On Thursday, August 17, 2023, at approximately 9:20 p.m., Sharifur Rahman, 44 years old of Owen Sound, was assaulted on 2nd Avenue East. He later succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased on Thursday, August 24, 2023. As part of the investigation, police determined the suspects had fled the country, leading the OPP and OSPS to work with international partners to coordinate overseas arrests.
On Tuesday, July 30, 2024, Police Scotland arrested 24-year-old Robert EVANS and 47-year-old Robert Busby EVANS in Edinburgh, Scotland. On Tuesday, October 29, 2024, 54-year-old Barry EVANS was arrested by Police Scotland in Dalkeith, Scotland.
Following the extradition process, on Thursday, December 11, 2025, OPP and OSPS investigators escorted the three accused from the United Kingdom (UK) to Ontario. Assistance was provided by UK law enforcement members from the National Extradition Unit of the National Crime Agency and Police Scotland.
The three accused remain in custody and are scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Owen Sound on Friday, December 12, 2025.
The investigation was conducted by the OSPS under the direction of the OPP Criminal Investigation Branch, in conjunction with the Office of the Chief Coroner and the Ontario Forensic Pathology Service. Assistance was provided by the OPP West Region Crime Unit, OPP Forensic Identification Services and the OPP Regional Support Team. Support was also provided by Hanover Police Service, West Grey Police Service, Police Scotland, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL), Ottawa Fugitive Apprehension Support Team and UK law enforcement members from the National Extradition Unit of the National Crime Agency.
The OSPS and the OPP would like to express their sincere appreciation to the Owen Sound community and neighbouring jurisdictions for their patience and continued support as this investigation has continued. We are aware of the impact this investigation has had on the victims family and the local community. We are also deeply grateful to everyone who came forward with information to assist police during the investigation.
As this case is now before the courts, the OPP and OSPS cannot provide any additional information on the investigation.
