A man serving a life sentence in Abbotsford prison was given CPR. It was on Boxing Day when the man, a 39-years old was found unresponsive.
Prompt intervention
The man was serving a life sentence of a gang-related murder at Pacific Institution in Abbotsford. The staff members quickly initiated CPR and the emergency crews were notified but Gurwinder (Gogi) Mann could not be resuscitated. The cause of his death was not released.
Mann began his life sentence on 2003 for the first-degree murder of Gurpreet Sohi, 20-years old who was gunned down in his Delta basement in 2000.
Just like in all similar cases involving the death of an inmate, the police and the coroner were notified and Correctional Service Canada will review the circumstances of the incident.
