KANSAS MAN ARRESTED AND INDICTED FOR KILLINGS RESULTING FROM HATE CRIMES

By

(KANSAS CITY, Mo.) — A Kansas man charged with fatally shooting an Indian national at a suburban Kansas City bar has been indicted on federal hate crime and firearms charges.

The Justice Department announced Friday that Adam Purinton, of Olathe, Kansas, was indicted by a federal grand jury.

The man allegedly killed and another wounded by Purinton on Feb. 22 at Austins Bar & Grill in Olathe, were Indian nationals. The victim was Srinivas Kuchibhotla and the injured man was his friend, Alok Madasani. A third man, Ian Grillot, was shot and wounded when he intervened.

The indictment alleges Purinton shot Kuchibhotla and Madasani because of their perceived race, color, religion and national origin.

The Justice Department said in a news release that it will decide later whether Purinton will face the death penalty.

LAI MOH'D DENIES EVER LYING TO NIGERIANS 18th Feb 2017, The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has called on those labeling him a liar to provide evidence of one lie he has told to warrant giving a different meaning to his first name.  Mohammed said in as much he was ready to answer different names based on the nature of his job, one thing he did not get himself prepared for was the pure hatred he was getting from the opposition. The Minister was speaking in an interview with the Sun in Lagos, where he noted that he did his job while in opposition with clear mind and did not attack any individual. Mohammed, who was the All Progressives Congress, APC’s mouthpiece, noted that the opposition will always attack him no matter what he did, since he played a major role in their downfall. His words, “I think anybody who occupies a public office should know that this sort of thing goes with the terrain. But probably what I was not prepared for was the viciou...

Their disappearance sparked a huge search before the pair were found safe and well 16 hours later after spending a night camping with the infant. The teens were briefly reunited with their baby girl on Tuesday amid the family's fears they would never see her again.
