- Three British men pleaded guilty in Canada after the death of 44-year-old restaurant owner Sharif Rahman following a dispute over an unpaid bill.
- Robert Evans Jr, 25, admitted to manslaughter, while his father, Robert Busby Evans, 47, and uncle, Barry Evans, 54, pleaded guilty to being accessories after the fact.
- The court heard the trio attempted to leave without paying a $145 restaurant bill, and Evans Jr threw the punch that ultimately led to Rahman’s death.
- Rahman died in August 2023, one week after the altercation outside his Indian restaurant in Owen Sound, leaving behind a wife and young daughter.
- Prosecutors said Barry Evans encouraged his nephew to flee by telling him to "run, run" and driving him away, while Robert Busby Evans allegedly arranged a flight for him back to the UK. The three men, believed to be from Manchester, were extradited from Scotland to Canada late last year and entered guilty pleas on Friday.
