Fired from job and home, poisoned in food... What happened before the murder of an Indian engineer in America?

News Topical, Digital Desk : The murder of an Indian engineer in the United States is now embroiled in controversy. Indian tech engineer Mohammed Nizamuddin was shot and killed by US police after he attacked his roommate with a knife. Initially, the case appeared to be merely a crime, but now the story is being revealed layer by layer.

Mohammad Nizamuddin described himself as a victim of racial hatred. He said he was wrongfully fired from his job and harassed by the investigating officer. He expressed his pain on LinkedIn and pleaded for justice.

He earned a master's degree in computer science

Mohammad Nizamuddin was a resident of Mahbubnagar, Telangana. He had a master's degree in computer science from a college in Florida and worked at a tech firm in Santa Clara, California. His family says he was a very quiet and religious person. Nizamuddin wrote in a LinkedIn post that he had been a victim of racial hatred, discrimination, racial harassment, exploitation, wage fraud, and wrongful termination.

He wrote, "I have decided to speak out against all the hardships I've faced. Enough is enough. White supremacy and racist American thinking must end. Corporate dictatorship must end, and all those involved must be severely punished." Nizamuddin explained that he works for EPAM Systems, a company that provides services to Google. But he faces racial discrimination within the company.

Nizamuddin alleged that the company did not pay him his salary as required by the Labor Department and that he was wrongfully terminated. Even after he lost his job, the racist harassment by the detective and his team continued. The situation worsened when Nizamuddin's food was poisoned and he was later evicted from his home.

Nizamuddin wrote in the post, "Today this is happening to me, tomorrow it could happen to anyone. Therefore, I appeal to the world to demand justice for the atrocities and wrongdoings of those involved." Nizamuddin's family has sought assistance from the Ministry of External Affairs to bring his body back to India.
