Masiulla Sahil, 37, accused of stabbing murder of Abdul Niazi, 34. 3/26/25

Crooked Joe Biden is out of office, but his destructive policies are still wreaking havoc on the United States.

Under the previous administration the DHS had a program called “Operation Allies Welcome” which helped settle Afghan refugees into the US.

37-year-old Masiulla Sahil is accused in the stabbing murder of Abdul Niazi, 34 years old. Both the victim and suspect were from Afghanistan.

Niazi was in a wheelchair and had lost both of his legs working for the United States Military while in Afghanistan. Niazi had a business where he helped Afghan refugees with issues including job applications, and paperwork to assist with immigration.

Sahil sought assistance from Niazi for his status as a refugee, but became increasingly frustrated at how long the approval for his refugee status was taking. After a brief argument, Sahil went to his vehicle, got a knife and came back to the office. After threatening Niazi, he stabbed him approximately 20 times.

Niazi had died on scene at his office. Sahil was eventually apprehended and was arrested. According to investigators, video shows the suspect entering and leaving the building. There appeared to be blood on his clothes while he was leaving the place of business.

Investigators also said that in court it was said that Sahil called a family member of Niazi’s to apologize after the attack.

Niazi is survived by his wife and five children. All his children are under 10 years old.

ABC 13 Houston Reported:

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Police believe a man’s fight and frustration to obtain refugee status led him to murder the man trying to help him in southwest Houston.

Like the suspect, the victim was also from Afghanistan. He lost both of his legs working for the U.S. military.

In probable cause court overnight, prosecutors said the victim, 34-year-old Abdul Niazi, was stabbed more than 20 times.

Review on July 9, 2025 to determine if the killer was an illegal and if the victim was an American.

Based on the Review, it is determined that the killer arrived in the US via Operation Allies Welcome and may or may not have been an illegal. The legal status of the killed is unclear.
