Following the release of fresh testimony that implicates the New York Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the daughters of famed black leader Malcolm X have demanded that the investigation into his assassination be reopened. During a news conference that took place on Saturday, one of Malcolm X’s six daughters, Ilyasah Shabazz, said that “any evidence that offers the best insight into the reality behind that awful event should be properly probed.” In addition to being regarded as one of the most influential African Americans in history, Malcolm X was a vocal Muslim advocate for black rights. However, his detractors claimed that he preached racism and violence. Malcolm X was considered to be one of the most influential African Americans in history. In February of 1965, he was killed by gunfire when he was doing a public speaking engagement in New York City. After being contacted by the American Federal Police on Sunday, a representative of the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office said that the office’s “review” of the matter is “active and continuing.” In a letter that was given out at the news conference, former New York Police Department officer Raymond Wood, who has since passed away, accused the New York Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation of being involved in the homicide. Wood, who was black and operated as an undercover spy, allegedly claimed to have contacted Malcolm X’s entourage on instructions from his higher-ups. This information was provided by his cousin (who was also black). Wood said that he was responsible for the arrest of two of the activist’s bodyguards, who were taken into custody only a few days before to the murder. El-hajj malik el-shabazz, the Muslim name of Malcolm X, was killed by three assailants on February 21, 1965, exactly 55 years ago to the day. He was about to deliver a speech at the audubon ballroom, which is a theater located in Harlem, which is located in the northern part of Manhattan. According to Wood, who stated that the New York Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation kept key details of the case hidden, he did not want his testimony to become public until after he had passed away. Cyrus Vance, the district attorney for Manhattan, requested that his teams conduct an investigation into the matter in February of 2020, following the release of the documentary series “Who Killed Malcolm X?” on Netflix. The purpose of this request was to determine whether or not the investigation ought to be reopened. Afp reached out to the New York Police Department on Sunday, and they responded by stating that they had sent the District Attorney’s Office with “all accessible data pertinent to that case.” “The New York Police Department continues to be dedicated to assisting with that review in any manner,” a spokeswoman said. An inquiry for comment was sent to the FBI’s New York office, but they did not provide a response.
