A man arrested as the prime suspect in the serial killing of four Muslim men in Albuquerque is believed to be a Sunni Muslim himself, it has been reported.
Police named the man as 51-year-old Muhammad Syed, who lived in southeast Albuquerque.
He emigrated from Afghanistan ‘in the last few years’, police said on Tuesday, and was twice charged with domestic violence – but charges were dropped.
Court records obtained by DailyMail.com show Syed was arrested in May 2018 and charged with ‘battery (household member)’. He pleaded not guilty, and prosecutors dropped the charges in August of that year.
Four months later, on December 23, 2018, Syed was charged with aggravated battery. The case was dismissed in April 2019.
It is believed that the suspected killer himself was a Sunni Muslim – and may have targeted his victims because he was angry over his daughter marrying a Shiite Muslim, according to the New York Times.
But the brother of one of the victims told DailyMail.com their family was Sunni, not Shiite, and he did not believe the hypothesis.
