Probably mistaken identity or gang initiation. The immigrant Muslim community in NYC tends to be very quiet. Let's hope this spurs them to push back against the jungle mentality that's pervasive in some parts of this city.

The wokesters would yell racism if neighborhoods started to take control of their own safety like the Italians, Irish, and Jews historically did in NYC but that's what it'll take.

. Neighbors heard a single gunshot as Modassar Khandaker, known to many in the Bangladeshi community as Jitu, was getting out of his white Honda CRV.

Someone approached the 36-year-old and shot him in the head.

They have not revealed a potential motive, but neighbors say the victim worked at JFK International Airport and did not have any apparent enemies.

One shot to the head but no reports of an argument or robbery? Perhaps this is personal - still terrible.

Isn’t that a bit quick, jumping the gun on who did what to who in this case. Could be ghetto types or easily be a Bangladeshi too.

Besides, some Italians, Irish and Jews who "protected" their community, so to speak, also charged for that "service", and when the payment wasn’t on time, snuffed out members of their community.

July 13, 1977. Approximately 9:30PM. Riding on southbound R train in Brooklyn. Blackout! We are walked back on the tracks to the 9th Street Station. Walk up to 5th Avenue to catch bus. Local Italian youths are out on the avenue with bats, protecting the stores. Get off bus in the 40s. Spend a while sitting on my stoop between 4th and 5th watching local males carrying furniture down the block. In the morning, the proprietor of the corner store was there, head in hands, distraught. They had cleaned him out. He did not reopen.
[Of course the current residents of Park Slope would probably encourage some looting.]

Just awful. Sad for that man. The home, and immediate surrounding area, should be a place of safety for people.

Just yesterday I was thinking maybe we need the mob to come to power again to stop all these crimes.

I understand statistical analysis is very difficult for some but understanding basic facts shouldn't be.

Take a look at page 7 in the PDF below. Is it possible he was killed by another Bengali? Almost anything is possible.

You think this dude that drove a Honda CR-V and worked at JFK as a wheelchair assistant was involved in organized crime?
