The 56-year-old was first reported missing by her family on Aug. 9. Police said her white 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLE450 SUV was found later that day near Finch Avenue East and Warden Avenue in Toronto.

Three days later, Ontario Provincial Police officers discovered burned human remains in the area of Avro Arrow Road and Highway 400 in Parry Sound. The remains were later identified as Mui.

The two new suspects have been identified as 24-year-old Abid Khugiani of Oshawa and 19-year-old Oscar Peidi. They were arrested on Nov. 27 and Dec. 4, respectively.

Khugiani is facing 13 charges, including indignity to a human body, two counts of unauthorized possession of a prohibited or restricted weapon, and six counts of traffic in credit card.

Meanwhile, Peidi has been charged with manslaughter, accessory after the fact to murder, kidnapping, forcible confinement, conspiracy to commit an indictable offence—kidnapping, conspiracy to commit an indictable offence—forcible confinement, and possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000.

Police continue to look for 47-year-old ZhixiongMarko Hu. They believe Hu, who is wanted in a Canada-wide warrant for first-degree murder, has fled to Hong Kong.
