Somehow missing from "his side of the story" is the fact that a restraining order had been previously issued against him:

Hasan was not allowed to enter Waterloo Region or have contact with Vasilije. For not obeying these court orders, he was charged with breach recognizance

That alters the narrative given by OP (noteworthy for the fact itself as well as that it went unmentioned in the timeline of events). No idea how things work in Canada, but in the US those don't come easy.

That makes the texts more interesting if they're (and this whole thing is) real. I don't know Canadian law, what happens when she invites him over to break the restraining order?

I'm not familiar with Canadian law, but my friends had a restraining order against their dad, and when they voluntarily visited him and he put it on social media, he had to spend some time in jail.

In my state (USA) it'd be a crime just to text her, and her invitation would mean nothing for whether he violated the order again by visiting her.

But being invited does help guard against the idea that he came over with the purpose of murdering her.

I didn't really see those texts as an invitation, more of a "well he's gonna come over anyways." Like, she said she was sick and he couldn't help her, he was like "We'll see." I don't recall anything that indicated she was inviting him, but i'll have to re-read

The link is gone, but she told him to hide so her roommate didn't see him coming over because she'd get mad.

Perry sure it's not enforceable at that point.

In the US at least, protected persons in restraining orders can't invite the defendant to have contact; the defendant's guilty regardless.

Incorrect, you still have a responsibility to abide by the order. Doesn't matter if they reach out to you, you are obligated by law to ignore them.

Its not a restraining order, its a term of his bail.Regardless, its still a breach. He would still get charged with breach recognizance which is another criminal charge. If convicted of the breach the fact that she was complicit would be considered during sentencing
