NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — An imam and another man are dead following a double shooting in Queens on Saturday afternoon.
CBS2’s Valerie Castro reported Imam Maulama Akonjee, 55, and a 64-year-old associate from his congregation were each shot in the head while on their way home from a local mosque by a man who came up behind them. The shooting took place near Liberty Avenue and 79th Street in Ozone Park around 2 p.m.
Witnesses said the imam from the Al-Furqan Masjid mosque had just delivered an afternoon service and was walking home with another member of the mosque when both men were gunned down.
The motivation behind the violence is still unclear, but many from the surrounding community who attend the mosque are calling this a hate crime.
“After prayer, he taught us how to live peacefully and how to help each other,” said Nazrul Islam of Ozone Park.
“A family man has been lost and a scholarly imam has been lost and we are devastated and we want … peace,” said Kobir Chowdhury of Ozone Park.
“We feel really insecure and unsafe in a moment like this,” said Millat Uddin of Ozone Park. “It’s really threatening to us, threatening to our future, threatening to our mobility in our neighborhood, and we’re looking for the justice.”

The mob still controls that neighborhood, this is a message.
I thought they had gun control in NY.
Nothing to see here. Move along. Probably just one of those pesky honor killing sharia thingy’s!
You are correct. This is sounding like DU.
On the other hand, Muslims doctrine wish death and enslavement for anyone who will not submit to them.
Is this a Imam talking about getting along with other faiths or the other kind?
If they were moderate they could have been killed by a radical Muslim. They’ve been known to do that all over the globe.
TRUE but..., incredibly insensitive to post such S**T at this time!!!
We are in a time of war, and pisslam is the enemy. Who knows the whole story on these sharia adherents who wish to take down our Constitution. The most intolerant death cult in the world would be crying hate crime and foaming if someone simply sent them a Jesus in a manger Christmas card. These blood lusting savages are under demonic possession, and their inferior beliefs anti-rights and tyranny have no place in modern Western civilization; they stink like bloated roadkill.
I was looking for outrage,
I guess You Win.
work place violence, the media will be not be looking for a motive like in cases of blacks muslims and other ethnics killing whites
Looking at statistics from around the world, the odds are great that another Muslim did the shooting.

Paid for by Clinton for Prez.
Something wants me to believe this particular E-MOM had come out to his version of the pulpit and condemned his fellow moose-limb animals for their hate against the world. But,there another part of me that wants to believe it hasn’t happened.
Anyway, ESAD Pelosi.
carry on......
As long as they both received their 72 virgins upon expiration.
Bingo!
[ Most likely a Sunni-Shia thing... ]
Or he could have been “going off the reservation” by actually preaching “peace” and his Saudi Paymasters thought they could buy some sympathy with his life and kill two birds with one stoning...
Lt should help to swing the vote in her favor.
Why don’t you share your outrage with Kayla Mueller’s family?
[ Regardless of the Perp..., the majority of comments I have seen are totally SICK! The individuals murdered are NOT to be denigrated in this manner! Let’s await some FACTS (if any) to respectively comment upon!!!
The death of ANYONE is not to be ridiculed!! ]
You would be correct if not for the 15 + years of the entire Media and Government Media complex pre-emtively rubbing “Whitey McChristian Male’s” nose in every mess created involving islam and only stopping the grinding of our nose in the poop hours after the perp was identified as a Muslim male shouting “Aloha Snackbar”.
This is the “Blow Back” THEY created.
