At about 11:00 p.m. Monday, April 17, 2006, Sangeeta Khanna called her 15-year-old son and told him that she was going to stop at the bank and then would be home shortly. In the morning her son noticed that she wasn’t at home and he decided to go to school. The boy shared the story with a friend’s mother who then notified police late Tuesday afternoon.

Officers located her vehicle in the RBC parking lot on 23 Avenue and 66 Street. There is no obvious indication of suspicious activity involving the vehicle, which has been seized for further examination.

Sangeeta Khanna, 41, is a single mother and is about 5’4”, 135 lbs, with dark hair and dark eyes. She was last seen wearing white velour pants (possibly with a stripe down the side) and a white top. She walks with a very noticeable limp.

New information released in missing woman case

Although the absence of a body makes it difficult to formally refer to the incident as a homicide, the case is being investigated as such. Police have identified an adult male suspect believed to be connected to the disappearance, and investigations revealed that the suspect traveled possibly as far east as Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan, following the time Sangeeta Khanna was last heard from. The male suspect is known to Ms. Khanna.

The map below indicates the route of travel the suspect took on his return to Edmonton in the early morning hours of Tuesday, April 18, 2006.
