P.A to murdered Fahim Saleh, Gokada’s founder arrested

Personal Assistant to Fahim Saleh- Gokada founder,Tyrese Devon Haspil, 21, has been arrested. A tech entrepreneur, Saleh, was found decapitated and dismembered in his $2.2million New York apartment. According to reports, Haspil, who worked as Saleh’s personal assistant, will be charged with second degree murder and other counts. Police detectives believe Saleh was killed after he found out his assistant had stolen tens of thousands of dollars from him, sources told Reporters.

The murder occurred after Saleh had set up a payment plan for Haspil to repay the money he allegedly stole instead of reporting him to authorities. Police believe Saleh was killed on Monday and investigators believe the killer returned to Saleh’s apartment on Tuesday to clean up and dismember the tech entrepreneur’s body, but were disrupted by Saleh’s sister, who had come to check on the brother.

When Saleh’s body was discovered, it had been decapitated and dismembered. His torso was found in the corner of his living room, with his head, arms, and legs separated into plastic bags. Autopsy results released on Thursday revealed that Saleh was tasered and then stabbed multiple times before being dismembered.

Surveillance footage from inside Saleh’s apartment showed Saleh walking into an elevator at about 1.40 pm on Monday with the assailant – dressed in a black suit, tie, mask and holding a large bag – following closely behind him.  Investigators say, Saleh, who was dressed in shorts and a t-shirt, appeared suspicious when the masked-man fumbled with the elevator, which requires the use of a key fob to operate.  

As the doors opened directly in Saleh’s full-floor apartment on the seventh-floor, words were said to be exchanged between the pair before the tech guru collapsed to the ground. A struggle then ensured between Saleh and the assailant but the elevator doors closed, obscuring the camera’s view of what happened next.
