The family of a murdered Surrey woman is appealing for public help to solve the crime.

For over a year the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) has investigated the death of Aisha Harouya, whose life was cut short at age 21.

On July 25, 2022, her body was found in a parking lot in the 11100-block of 124 Street, in Bridgeview, the result of what IHIT and the BC Coroners Service deem foul play.

Homicide detectives determined Harouya was last seen alive in Surrey on July 24, 2022, in the area of 100 Avenue and Whalley Boulevard.

On Tuesday (Jan. 9), her family appealed to the public for witnesses to come forward.

91ƵShe (Aisha) will never get the chance to go to college, get married, have kids, she will have none of that. I will never hear her say the words 91ƵMommy91Ƶ or 91ƵI love you91Ƶ ever again,91Ƶ Ashni Ram, Harouya91Ƶs mother, said in an IHIT news release.

91ƵShe loved animals and the love of her life was her dog, Lexi. She was going into makeup and hair and her dream was to be a makeup artist and move to L.A. She had a passion for fashion.91Ƶ

Posted online is a two-page letter from Ram.

91ƵI have a hard time comprehending why, or most importantly how, someone could hurt another person with no regard for the outcome of human life,91Ƶ Ram wrote. 91ƵOnly someone who has lost a child can understand the grief.

91ƵI am pleading with the public, at this time, if you have any information or can remember seeing my daughter Aisha, or anyone she was talking to, walking with, if she got into a car with anyone between the dates of July 23rd and July 24th, 2022, to please come forward. We need justice served not only for my daughter but for other young women to end violence against women. Our family needs closure and peace so any information, no matter how big or small, might help.91Ƶ
