A father thousands of miles away wants to know why someone shot his son multiple times outside a subway station in Toronto. “It was 6 am in India when we got a call from his cousin, whom Kartik lived with in Toronto. Almost five hours later, I spoke to a police officer who told me that my son was dead,” Kartik’s father, Jitesh Vasudev, told The Quint while in tears. Kartik Vasudev had been heading to work and had gotten off earlier than normal to pick up a package for his boss. “We are shocked & distressed at the unfortunate killing of Indian student Kartik Vasudev in a shooting incident in Toronto,” the Consulate General of India wrote in a statement posted on Twitter on Friday.
