A 27-year-old man in Brooklyn, New York has been accused of an unimaginable crime. Rasel Siddiquee is now in jail, facing charges of murdering his own landlord.
The victim, 57-year-old Mahuddin Mahmud was found in the basement of the building he owned. His head had been partially decapitated and his face was burned.

Saddiquee allegedly arrived from Bangladesh several years ago and rented the basement apartment from the victim. According to the victim’s family, the pair could have been arguing over some paperwork for the suspect’s upcoming trip to Bangladesh.
