A devastating crime has shaken the community in Melbourne’s west, where a 36-year-old father of two was found dead in a park.
Anmol Bajwa’s life was cut short, leaving behind a family and a community in mourning.
The Discovery
Bajwa’s body was discovered at a park near Elementary Rd, Mambourin, around 7:30 am on Tuesday.
He had suffered fatal head injuries, and his family had raised the alarm after he failed to return home on Monday night.
The news of his death has sent shockwaves through the community, with many struggling to come to terms with the loss of a loved one.
Arrest Made
In a breakthrough in the case, a 31-year-old man from Brookfield has been charged with one count of murder.
The suspect has been remanded to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court, where he will face justice for his alleged crimes.
The swift action by the authorities has brought some comfort to the family and friends of the victim, who are still trying to process the tragedy.
A Devastating Loss
Bajwa’s brother, Amandeep, spoke to 7NEWS, expressing his grief and devastation at the loss of his sibling. “He’s one of my best mates, marvellous, he was everything to me,” he said, highlighting the close bond between the two brothers.
Bajwa was a loving person, known for his kind nature and his ability to get along with everyone.
His death has left a void in the lives of those who knew him, and his family is struggling to come to terms with the loss.
A Family Left Behind
Bajwa leaves behind a wife and two young children, a six-year-old daughter and a three-year-old son. The family had immigrated to Australia from India, seeking a better life.
Tragically, Bajwa was due to celebrate his son’s birthday on Saturday, a milestone that will now never be reached.
A fundraiser has been set up to support Bajwa’s wife and children, as they navigate this difficult time.
