(WFLA) The wife of a man shot and killed in the parking lot of the Islamic Society of Tampa Bay claims the mosque knew there was a problem between her husband and the man who shot and killed him and they did nothing to prevent her husband’s death.
Huda Salim Kareem came to the United States in 2008 to escape violence in her native Iraq.
Here, she met Rafat Saeed and married him. They were raising two daughters that Kareem had from a previous marriage.
According to a civil lawsuit filed for Kareem, Saeed was coming home from another mosque after a Ramadan observance and was crossing through the parking lot of the Islamic Society of Tampa Bay when he was stopped by a volunteer security guard, MD Rakibul Haque, who was working for the mosque at the time.
