Evidence says more than one suspect
From Canada.comEvidence uncovered at the scene of Cecilia Zhang's abduction has police investigating the possibility that more than one suspect was involved in the nine-year-old girl's disappearance. ''Right now we're keeping all of our avenues open, but the scene would indicate that there's a good potential that there was more than one suspect involved in this abduction,'' Det. Sgt. Dave Perry has told America's Most Wanted. In pre-recorded segments for the popular TV crime show, Perry - a lead investigator in the search - and Sgt. Jim Muscat, who serves as the police spokesman on the case, discuss the abduction of the gifted nine-year-old pupil. ''We would love whoever has Cecilia to call us tonight, to let us know where we can find her,'' Muscat says in a clip from Saturday's broadcast, segments of which were shown Thursday on Toronto TV station CP24. Cecilia's parents are also shown delivering a heartfelt message to their only child. ''Cecilia, we are hoping you can watch this show,'' Raymond Zhang says with wife Sherry Xu by his side. ''Be strong, and we will do our best to get you back soon.'' With the search for Cecilia well into its second week, police were still trying to determine a motive for the abduction and had launched an aggressive poster campaign. After two days of canvassing two areas in nearby Brampton where a couple of mysterious phone calls were apparently made to the home of the little girl, police shifted their efforts Wednesday to getting more than 1,700 flyers and posters in bus and subway stations. The flyers and posters, in English and Chinese, feature a picture of a smiling Cecilia and her description - four-foot-11 and 70 pounds, with black hair and blonde highlights. They also emphasize a $50,000 police reward for the safe return of the girl to her family. Cecilia was discovered missing from her Toronto home Oct. 20 when her mother went to wake her for school. A broken screen window at the rear of the two-storey home suggested forced entry, and police have ruled out a random abduction by a predator. Instead, investigators have been probing the case as a possible kidnapping for profit. Earlier this week, police canvassed patrons of a rural general store and a doughnut shop northwest of the city, where two calls were made to Cecilia's home from pay phones on the morning of her disappearance. The bizarre case attracted the attention of America's Most Wanted, which sent a film crew Tuesday to Cecilia's home to film an episode focusing on the search for the Grade 4 pupil.
