Background

KINGSTON, Ont. - The trial of a Montreal family accused of killing three teenage sisters and a woman over family honour is set to resume today in Kingston, Ont.

The case was abruptly adjourned Thursday after one of the accused became ill.

Tooba Mohammad Yahya, 41, her husband Mohammad Shafia, 58, and their son, Hamed Mohammad Shafia, 20, are each charged with four counts of first-degree murder.

The judge didn't specify which accused was sick, but Mohammad Shafia was the only one of the three not in the courtroom Thursday.

The defendant was let out of the hospital Friday and sent back to jail.

Shafia, Yahya and Hamed are accused of killing three teenage Shafia sisters, Zainab, 19, Sahar, 17, and Geeti, 13, and Rona Amir Mohammad, 50, who were found dead inside a submerged car in June 2009 in the Rideau Canal in Kingston.

Mohammad was one of Shafia's two wives in a polygamous marriage.

As the seconds and minutes tick by, the question becomes increasingly critical: Is there enough time for a father, mother and grown son to forcibly drown three teenage girls and a woman in her 50s, pack them into a Nissan Sentra, send it into a canal, and get back to a rented motel room about 4 ½ minutes away?

The prosecution says yes.

The defence says no.
