WOMEN CHARGED AS ACCESSORIE­S IN WARLORD’S HOMICIDE

-

Police in London, Ont., have charged two women in connection with the death of an alleged ex-warlord. They say two 22-yearold women from Toronto are both charged with accessory after the fact to the offence of assault with a weapon. Police are looking for a suspect, Keiron Gregory, 22, on a charge of second-degree murder in Bill Horrace’s death. London police have also charged a Toronto police officer, Const. Trevor Gregory, 46, with breach of trust in relation to Horrace’s death. He is the father of Keiron Gregory. Investigat­ors allege that four people broke into Horrace’s home in London on June 21, fatally shooting him in front of his family. Police have said they do not believe Horrace’s killing was related to alleged war crimes he is accused of in Liberia. Horrace filed a refugee claim in Canada in 2002 and admitted he was part of Liberian President Charles Taylor’s army as a chaplain. Taylor is serving a 50-year sentence for war crimes in neighbouri­ng Sierra Leone. Horrace was in a lengthy battle with the Canadian government to become a permanent resident.
