Ruhel Islam, an immigrant who grew up under a Bangladeshi dictatorship, said someone took the stolen van to his new restaurant, Curry In A Hurry, from in front of his home then used the keys left inside the truck to enter the building Monday, taking $500 from the register

-snip

His first restaurant, called Gandhi Mahal, was located just blocks away from the Minneapolis Police Department’s 3rd Precinct, which was also burned down by rioters last summer. The restaurant caught fire during the demonstrations. Islam and his daughter, Hafsa Islam, went viral on Facebook, writing in a post at the time, "Let my building burn. Justice needs to be served."

The building that once housed Gandhi Mahal on East Lake Street has since been demolished and a community garden has been erected in its place. Islam later opened Curry In A Hurry less than two miles away, which is open for takeout, delivery, catering and outdoor seating over the summer.

Islam said his catering truck was filled with newly purchased catering supplies, kitchen gear, and private business account paperwork when it was stolen from outside his home in the Morris Park/Nokomis area Saturday afternoon. Curry In A Hurry said in a post to its Facebook page that the stolen van was last spotted by a good Samaritan driving at Lake Street and 38th Avenue around 10:15 p.m. Tuesday. The van’s log was painted over with black squares. No suspects have been apprehended. 

Islam said he would not press charges if his van was returned. 

"If you need food, I’ll give you food all your life - you’ll have it. Need a job to rent a house, I’ll give you a job," Islam said. "Come work with us and solve the problem. This is what we have to do."

No, Ruhel they don’t want food. They want to stick a knife into you. Is that ok?

If I were the owner of an insurance company, I would not be offering policies in and around Minneapolis.

What do you bet that he bragged about his new van filled with supplies on his Facebook page in the way of advertising?

This moron will later opine that America is not the land of opportunity and is anti-Islamic because no one helped him when white supremacists burned his business down and stole all of his stuff, LOL. Liars gotta lie.

Well, that will create jobs and spur economic growth

Curry in a hurry is a catchy name - I’ll give him that.

Beyond that this guy is dumber than a box of hammers

America is mean! Mr. ISLAM should head back to luxurious, homogeneous Bangladesh and catch the end of monsoon season.
