A woman charged in an apparently unprovoked fatal stabbing in Toronto's financial district late last year is now charged with first-degree murder.
A Toronto police spokeswoman says the charge against 40-year-old Rohinie Bisesar was upgraded from second-degree murder in court on Wednesday.
Const. Jenifferjit Sidhu says Bisesar is to return to court on Feb. 29.
Rosemarie Junor, 28, died several days after being stabbed at a Shoppers Drug Mart in Toronto's popular underground PATH network of shops and restaurants on Dec. 11.
Security images taken at the time of the stabbing showed a well-dressed, long-haired woman making a hasty retreat from the drugstore.
Junor, a newlywed medical technician who worked nearby, was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries and died five days after the attack.
