<p>On Thursday, the New York chapter of the Council on American Islamic Relations called on the NYPD to investigate whether bias could be a motive in the attack. Khanam was wearing Muslim attire when she was killed, according to the group.<br />
Before she was knifed, her husband, who suffers from asthma, had stopped to catch his breath, and she continued towards home without him.<br />
Suddenly, the husband heard a scream and ran to his wife, the sources said. He found her bleeding with a piece of the knife still sticking out of her chest and called 911.<br />
Nothing was stolen from the victim, who was carrying packages home, sources said.<br />
Her husband told cops Khanam was out of his view when she was knifed, according to police sources.</p>

Khanam was rushed to Jamaica Hospital where she died about an hour later, sources said.<br />
Surveillance video reviewed by the police show Khanam and her husband walking and later a man running away from the scene of the stabbing.<br />
Police recovered surveillance video near the crime scene which show the couple walking separately while another shows a man running, sources said.Investigators are still searching for a motive but believe the incident may have started as an attempted robbery. There may have been more than one suspect involved in her killing, sources said.<br />
Khanam’s nephew works as a transit cop, according to the NYPD Muslim Officers Society, which <a href="https://twitter.com/NYPDMuslim/status/771210756624789504?lang=en">announced on Twitter</a> that the woman was a relative of one of its members.</p>

The nephew was brought to the scene where he talked with detectives after learning what had happened<br />
On Aug. 13,<a href="https://konniemoments.com/2016/08/16/oscar-morel-suspect-in-the-killing-of-imam-and-friend-in-queens-ny-may-have-been-trying-to-settle-muslim-hispanic-neighbourhood-dispute/"> Queens imam Maulama Akonjee, 55, and a friend, Thara Uddin, 65, were shot to death</a> at Liberty Ave. and 79th St. in Ozone Park, Queens. Cops arrested Oscar Morel, 35, for what prosecutors called the “cold-blooded assassination.”<br />
Police investigated the case as a hate crime but have yet to uncover a motive.<br />
&#8220;Because of the recent killings of Muslims in Queens, and because of the growing number of anti-Muslim incidents nationwide resulting from the increasing Islamophobia in American society, we urge the NYPD to investigate a possible bias motive for this murder,&#8221; CAIR-NY Executive Director Afaf Nasher said Thursday of Khanam’s slaying.</p>
