An Abbotsford, B.C., man has been charged with the first-degree murder of the mother of his two children.

Kamaljit Sandhu, 45, was found dying from critical injuries inside a home in the 2900-block of Eastview Street on Thursday afternoon.

The suspected killer, 48-year-old Inderjit Sandhu, was arrested at the scene. Crown prosecutors approved the murder charge on Friday, according to a news release from the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team.
