Killing of 3 Muslims in America in 13 days
Hate crime in the US has increased by 4.7% since the beginning of 2022 compared to 2021.

On August 5, a Muslim youth was murdered in New Mexico, USA. He has been identified as Naeem Hussain (25). The reason for the murder has also not been revealed. Police suspects targeted killing. This is the third murder in the last 13 days.

Albuquerque Police Chief Harold Medina said - Another person from the Muslim community has been murdered. We think the killings in the last two weeks are related to the murder of Mohammad Ahmadi in November 2021. The 62-year-old Ahmadi was an Afghan Muslim.
However, the Chief did not give any information about how these killings are related. He said- We currently suspect the murders to be linked to each other. The matter will be cleared only after investigation and the reason behind the murder will be known. No information has been given about who committed all these murders.

Muhammad Afzal Hussain, 27, was murdered on 26 July. A week after this incident, on August 1, a person named Aftab Hussain (41) was also murdered. The third murder took place on 5 August. He has not been identified yet.
A police officer said that the four Muslim men, including Mohammad Ahmadi, who was killed, used to visit the same mosque. The official said- The four men used to go to the Islamic Center of New Mexico. We are questioning the people coming and going into the mosque. There is fear among the people about these killings. Things are getting worse. Many people have stopped leaving the house. Many people who served in the mosque have also stopped coming here.
