Slain student Jun Lin to be honoured at public memorial in Montreal
MONTREAL – A public memorial will be held this morning for slain Montreal student Jun Lin.
The 33-year-old Chinese national was killed and dismembered two months ago in a gruesome case that shocked people around the world.
Lin’s parents are expected to attend the ceremony at a Montreal church.
Luka Rocco Magnotta has pleaded not guilty to several charges in connection with Lin’s death — including a count of first-degree murder.
Lin was studying computer science at Concordia University.
The university says it has raised more than $70,000 in Lin’s name to support his family and Chinese students at the school.
