RCMP to provide update on hunt for murderer who escaped B.C. jail

Rabih Alkhalil, convicted of two murders, escaped with contractor assistance and remains at large with a $50,000 RCMP reward for his capture, three years after fleeing custody.

  • On Monday, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Federal Policing Pacific Region and British Columbia's Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit will provide an update on the search for Rabih 'Robbie' Alkhalil, a convicted murderer who escaped years ago.
  • Rabih 'Robbie' Alkhalil broke out in July 2022 from the North Fraser Pre-Trial Centre in Port Coquitlam, B.C., reportedly aided by two men posing as contractors while on trial for Sandip Duhre's 2012 murder.
  • The RCMP currently lists Alkhalil as number three with a $50,000 reward, and he is also the subject of an Interpol Red Notice.
  • Authorities note he has been twice convicted of first-degree murder, including a 2017 Ontario conviction, and four co-defendants received life sentences with no chance of parole for 25 years in 2017.
  • The case involved multiple arrests and international cooperation, with Alkhalil on trial for a 2012 Vancouver restaurant shooting murder.
