Toyah Cordingley was found dead after a visit to the beach, where she had gone to walk her dog. Her untimely demise has been a source of community sorrow and legal intrigue.

On October 21, 2018, Cordingley traveled approximately 40 kilometers north of Cairns for a leisurely Sunday afternoon stroll along the beach with her dog. This seemingly routine outing ended in tragedy.

Authorities have described Cordingley’s death as the result of “a personal and intimate attack,” a stark reminder of the violence she faced.

In the aftermath of Cordingley’s death, investigators believe Singh fled to India, leaving his family behind in Innisfail, close to Cairns. This move has added complexity to the ongoing investigation and legal proceedings.
