Toronto police have released more details about the city's latest homicide, but have not yet publicly identified the victim.
At a news conference at police headquarters on Friday afternoon Det.-Sgt. Frank Skubic said the victim was a 31-year-old Asian female, but would not name her, saying her family has not yet been notified.
The woman was found Tuesday evening in her apartment near Bayview Avenue and Sheppard Avenue East.
According to Skubic, the woman was found with her hands bound behind her back on the floor of her bedroom. She had been stabbed multiple times in the head, chest, neck, back, legs.
Police are asking for friends to come forward, hoping they will be able to give more detail about the woman's recent activities.
Skubic told the news conference there was "no indication this was a robbery" and said police were looking at any and all possibilities.
"We are actively looking at occurrences that have occurred recently in that community," he said.
Police say the woman advertised a room for rent on a Chinese language website and would like anyone who contacted the victim or went to her apartment, at 75 Talara Dr., to also contact police.
