Police think it was a professional job and it reads like something from a Hollywood movie!

"Saudi-born venture capitalist" now wasn't there a story a while back of another Saudi living overseas getting murdered and cut up.

I wonder what nasty thing he might have said about the Saudi Government that got them to risk popping over to New York during a pandemic.

He had business dealings in Nigeria. So death could be linked to either of those countries.

I like in the article where it says "Detectives believe he was murdered"

No! You don't say!

Seems a very Nigerian method of execution. Guess he has upset someone out there?

Seems like a method the Saudis like to use from time to time too.

I’m guessing that as he was chopped and bagged, and the apartment cleaned up, he was supposed to ‘disappear’, but they didn’t get to finish the job.

Well, yes, but that’s what the article says isn’t it?

After the sympathy you received on here for your recent loss Eric, I'm surprised you'd trivialise and belittle someone else's loss like that on the same forum.

It was in the context of what has happened previously under the auspices of the Saudi regime and not a personal attack on him or his family. This case has all the marks of a Saudi assassination as they have a track record on this score.

I fully appreciated the sympathy and empathy I received on here from fellow PH members. That was really nice and a tribute to many people on here.

This is an incident involving someone no one on here knows or maybe even knew about before his untimely death. It is a general "news" item and my comment was in the style of the type of remark you might hear on "Have I Got News for You". If you heard a comment like that on HIGNFY, would you write a letter of complaint to the BBC?

Pathetic response Eric. Your first post was to ask if his “family were all cut up about it”.

The post from Gameface re: your wife is spot on. Sadly.

Must be easy for a hitman to operate in this current Covid pandemic as people don't bat an eye anymore to someone wearing a mask and sunglasses even indoors.


In the mirror article this comment seems to offer some insight over why it happened:

comment in mirror said:
He failed to pay off the Neo Black Movement. Do business in Nigeria, without paying off the mob and expect to end up in a suitcase. NBM are virtually state-sponsored, such is their level of infiltration and corruption at national Government level.

Due to the weighting that pistonheads has on google when you search the guys name it comes up with this thread on the search results so it's possible that his family and friends will read these comments.
