At about 10:30 p.m., on a street in Vancouver, he was swarmed by a large group of men. He was partially decapitated with a sword. He was viciously beaten and left in the middle of a road.
Several weapons were used in Vancouver's first homicide in 2013, including bats, clubs and a sword.
Manraj Akalirai did not have a criminal record, but he was known to Police and there are suggestions the attack had ties to the drug trade and a loose gang connection.
His family denies those allegations and describes Manraj as a well-mannered, humble and respectful individual.
Numerous people have been arrested in connection with this tragedy and have been released.
It has been suggested that Manraj was a sweet, innocent man who may have been targeted in a plot to silence him for co-operating with police. He had been stabbed in October of 2012 and was co-operating with police in the investigation, and was continually harassed by his attackers, therefore he could have been targeted.

| Father, place Manraj on the road to Heaven. |
Manraj is survived by many loving friends and relatives.
Pray for those who die young and violently. Amen.
Pray for all who get involved in the drug trade. Pray for those who are stabbed at age 18 and who are killed at age 19. Amen.
Let us pray that Manraj is in heaven. Let us pray that he is at peace and is with God. Amen.
God save us from drugs. Amen.
