Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], Feb. 24 (ANI): Realtives of murdered Indian-origin engineer, Srinivas Kuchibhotla on Friday blamed President Donald Trump for the hate crime in Kansas.

“This certainly shows that Trump is surely the primary reason as of now. Most of my relatives are in the U.S. from the past 20 years and they have never encountered this thing. This is first such incident in our family,” said Shastri, Srinivas’s brother.

Shastri further said that the only thing they want from the government is to handover Srinivas’s body at the earliest.

“Sushma Swaraj called me in the morning and the local BJP team has been in touch with me. They have said they would be supporting us along with the Telangana Government,” he said.

According to local U.S. media, gunman Adam Purinton, 51 who is a Navy veteran, was arrested after he allegedly fired several rounds and killed Srinivas Kuchibhotla, an engineer at GPS maker Garmin International and wounded his colleague Alok Madasani.

At least one witness has claimed that Purtinton yelled ‘get out of my country’ and also heard him screaming racial slurs before opening fire.

by Trump and the alt-reich!

I can't believe America is sliding into fascism and terror so far, so fast!

But we are supposed to emphasize with these poor folks and understand and cater to their murderous hate some people say!

Fuck that!

Comrade Don said he wanted to track crimes by immigrants. Let's see who causes the violence. Know of any immigrants setting fire to mosques?
