A former interpreter for the U.S. Army in Afghanistan who lost both legs in combat was stabbed to death at the Houston, Texas, office he opened to assist other refugees trying to make new lives for themselves.

Masiullah Sahil, 37, is now facing murder charges over the March 26 death of Abdul Rahman Niazi, a 34-year-old father of five who was resettled in America in 2014. Sahil, who Niazi had reportedly helped, confessed to the crime while on the phone with Niazi’s wife, who called her husband shortly after he was killed, according to news reports and court filings reviewed by The Independent.
