MONTREAL – Nunavik Police and Quebec provincial police say two men have been charged in connection with the disappearance and death of a 31-year-old man in a remote village last June.
The men were charged nearly three months after Sanaak Unatweenuk was reported missing from Kuujjuaq to Nunavik Police Service.
The local force transferred the investigation to Quebec provincial police in July, suspecting the man was a victim of a homicide.
According to charges filed in Kuujjuaq, a 28-year-old man was arrested in the northern Quebec community and is charged with second-degree murder and causing indignity to a body.
A 57-year-old man was also arrested in Montreal and charged with being an accessory after the fact and indignity to human remains.
Both men remain detained, police said in a joint statement.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 11, 2025.
