Odaily Planet Daily News According to local media reports, Canadian law enforcement has confirmed that a body found in a Montreal park belongs to Kevin Mirshahi, a 25-year-old cryptocurrency industry figure. Mirshahi has been suspected of death since at least August this year, and the police have not found and confirmed his body until now. Mirshahi was kidnapped from an apartment building in Old Montreal along with three others in late June. The others returned unscathed the next day, while Mirshahi remained missing. It was not until October 30 that a passerby found his body in Montreal's Île-de-la-Visitation Park. Mirshahi owns and operates an investment institution called Crypto Paradise Island. The Quebec investment regulator, the Autorité des marchés financiers, launched an investigation into the company in 2021. On July 4, 2024, the regulator banned Mirshahi, his company and two related persons from engaging in brokerage or investment advisory activities and securities trading, and ordered them to delete social media posts. In August, police arrested a 32-year-old woman suspected of participating in the kidnapping and death of Mirshahi, and she now faces charges including first-degree murder. (The Block)
