The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team has identified the two women found found dead in their Surrey home Thursday evening as Kathleen Maximuik, 61, and Anne Shouchuk, 81.
No details about the circumstances of their death have been released. IHIT Cpl. Dominic Duchesneau says they aren't looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.
“We are in the very early stages of this investigation and we are working to establish what happened inside the residence, said Duchesneau. We do not believe there’s a third party involved and we are yet to determine if foul play is a factor.”
Neighbours say Kathleen Maximuik and Anne Shouchuk had not been seen for at least two weeks. They say police arrived shortly after a relative came by to check on the home on Thursday.
IHIT is asking anyone who can shed light on these "suspicious circumstances" to give them a call at 1-877-551-4448 or by email at ihittipline@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.
