I'm almost surprised that they didn't charge her with a crime. Woman ‘lured’ to Edgemont residence, fought off attacker in ‘self-defence’: police
A woman is recovering after an altercation with a man in Calgary’s northwest that resulted in his death in what police are calling “the most clear-cut case of self-defence.”
Police believe the man, 48-year-old Shahbaz Ahmed, lured the woman in her 30s to the residence in the community of Edgemont under a false pretence of a property showing on Jan. 9.
She did go with her father, but made the mistake of getting separated from him. That is when Shahbaz Ahmed attacked her. It was the last thing he did. She was able to stab him, and flee. He did not survive.
“She did everything right,” [staff Sgt. Scott] Guterson [with Calgary Police Service’s homicide unit] said. “This is a great example of someone who is completely innocent and had to suffer a very traumatic incident at the hands of a perpetrator.”
As an investigation has determined that the woman was acting in self-defence, Ahmed’s death has been deemed a non-culpable homicide and no charges will be laid in the incident.
That last is amazing, because the Prime Minister has all but said you do not have the right to defend yourself from attack.
