SURREY, B.C. – The RCMP have identified two teenaged brothers found dead in a townhouse in Surrey, B.C., and confirmed the man they have charged in the killings is their stepfather.
Police say 66-year-old Mahendra Singh Johal – also known as Mahendra Singh – is charged with two counts of second-degree murder and one count of first-degree murder.
Two brothers – 17-year-old Amarjit Gill and 15-year-old Ranjit Gill – were found dead Sunday morning after police responded to a 911 call of a shooting in Surrey.

Cpl. Dale Carr of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Unit says Johal is married to the woman and is the boys’ stepfather.
