More adjournments in case of Calgary man charged with death of Carrot River man

The case against a Calgary man charged with the murder of a Saskatchewan man was adjourned twice this week.

Fayiah (Victor) Braima, 23, appeared in Calgary Provincial Court March 9 and March 11. 

Braima was arrested Feb. 7 and charged with first-degree murder in connection to the death of Sheldon Wolf, 47, of Carrot River, Sask. 

Braima remains in custody after his bail was denied at a Feb. 10 court appearance and a warrant for committal was filed on Feb. 24.

Wolf was reported missing after his family last saw him when he left the Sandman Hotel in downtown Calgary on Feb. 2 at about 7 p.m. He never returned and a missing report was filed Feb. 3. 

Calgary Police say evidence connected to Wolf’s disappearance was found in Calgary's Elliston Park on Feb. 4.

Wolf’s body was found in a rural area north of Airdrie on Feb. 4. Airdrie is 28 kilometres north of Calgary. 

Calgary Police Service S/Sgt. Martin Schiavetta said they believe Wolf willingly met with individuals who he had no previous relationship with prior to coming to Calgary. 

Braima’s next court appearance is scheduled for March 17 in Calgary Provincial Court.
