A man's torso was found beside an electric saw inside an apartment building in the Lower Eastside of NYC. Cops also found contractor bags, but they didn't look in em, so no word on if it contains the missing pieces.

The victim's sister called the police because she hadn't heard from the victim in a day. This is what led to the grisly discovery. The victim is believed to be 33-34 years old.

NYC cops find decapitated, limbless man in million-dollar condo; electric saw found next to torso

The limbless, headless torso of a millionaire tech entrepreneur was found inside his swanky Manhattan condo Tuesday afternoon — an electric saw lying next to the remains, police said. Police made the grisly discovery in a building on…

When detectives began investigating, they found the man’s torso and an electric saw nearby, two law enforcement officials briefed on the matter said. The man’s head and limbs were later found in the apartment, a Police Department spokesman said.

There were several large plastic bags in the apartment, and it appeared that some effort had been made to clean up any evidence of what had happened, one law enforcement officials briefed on the matter said.

On Wednesday morning the police identified the man as Fahim Saleh, a 33-year-old technology entrepreneur and the owner of the condo where the body was found.

Mr. Saleh’s sister made the gruesome discovery at around 3:30 p.m. when she went to check on him after not hearing from him for a day, the officials said. After finding the body, she called the police, officials said.

The saw was still plugged into an electrical outlet when the police arrived, leading detectives to investigate whether the arrival of Mr. Saleh’s sister at the condo might have interrupted the killing and prompted the killer to flee through another exit, one of the law enforcement officials said.

The medical examiner has not officially determined the cause of death — and has not specified how Mr. Salaeh was killed — but detectives had been investigating the case as a homicide, and on Wednesday morning they officially classified it as such.

One of the law enforcement officials said a surveillance camera had captured video of Mr. Saleh in the building’s elevator with another person who was wearing a black suit and black mask.

On the video, the elevator door opens and Mr. Saleh goes into the apartment, the official said. The masked person follows directly behind him, and the two immediately start to struggle, the official said.

The sister is seen on the video arriving a short time later. There is a second way out of the apartment through a service entrance, the official said.

Friends of Mr. Saleh described him as an ambitious man who ran every morning, kept a busy schedule of meetings and often traveled to Nigeria on business. He collected tech gadgets and lived alone with a small dog, Laila, which was found alive in the apartment, they said.

Ex-personal assistant arrested in murder of tech CEO Fahim Saleh
A former employee has been arrested in the grisly murder of tech CEO Fahim Saleh, sources told The Post Friday.

Tyrese Devon Haspil, 21, is in custody and expected to be charged with the murder of Saleh — who was found decapitated and dismembered inside his Lower East Side apartment on Tuesday, the sources said.

Haspil worked as Saleh’s chief of staff at his venture capital firm Adventure Capital — but acted as his personal assistant.

The motive behind Saleh’s slaying allegedly involves stolen cash, sources said.

The entrepreneur, 33, learned that Haspil allegedly swiped $100,000 from him — but instead of ratting him out to authorities, he brokered a repayment plan with the younger man.

But at some point, Haspil allegedly reneged on the deal.

“This was an act of charity that turned into an act of murder,” the source said.
Saleh’s body was discovered Tuesday by a concerned cousin who hadn’t heard from him in days, sources previously told The Post.

The personal assistant of a young tech entrepreneur who was found decapitated and dismembered in his Manhattan apartment this week was arrested early on Friday and is expected to be charged in the grisly killing, according to two officials briefed on the matter.
[....]
The personal assistant, Tyrese Devon Haspil, 21, was expected to be charged in a criminal complaint with second degree murder and other crimes.

Detectives believe that the motive for the killing stemmed from Mr. Saleh having discovered that the assistant had stolen tens of thousands of dollars from him, despite the fact that Mr. Saleh had not reported the man and had set up what amounted to a repayment plan for him to return the money, one of the officials said.

Police were expected to announce the arrest at news conference on Friday.

Investigators have also concluded that Mr. Saleh was killed on Monday, the day before his body was found, and that the killer used his employer’s credit card to pay for a car to a Home Depot, on West 23rd Street in Manhattan, to buy cleaning supplies to sanitize the crime scene, the official said. The killer returned to Mr. Saleh’s apartment the next day to dismember the body and clean up the crime scene.

Detectives believe that the killer, dressed in a black three-piece suit, wearing a black mask and carrying a duffel bag, followed Mr. Saleh off an elevator in his building and into his apartment, a law enforcement official said. He used a Taser to immobilize Mr. Saleh and then stabbed him to death.

Security video taken from inside the elevator shows the killer later using a battery-operated portable vacuum cleaner in an apparent effort to remove any traces of his presence, the official said.

Mr. Saleh was born in Saudi Arabia to Bangladeshi parents who eventually settled near Poughkeepsie, N.Y., a small city on the Hudson River.

After graduating from Bentley University in Waltham, Mass., in 2009, he built an app called PrankDial that allowed users to send prerecorded prank calls. Mr. Saleh said he eventually built PrankDial into a $10 million business.

Mr. Saleh went on to found Pathao, a motorcycle ride-sharing start-up in Bangladesh. He left that company in 2018 to begin a similar venture in Nigeria, an app known as Gokada.

At the time of his death, Mr. Saleh was the chief executive of Gokada and oversaw a shift in its business during a turbulent time. In February, Nigerian officials began enforcing a ban on motorcycle taxis in major commercial and residential parts of the country’s largest city, Lagos.

Gokada was forced to halt its ride-hailing business and laid workers off, but Mr. Saleh pivoted the company to focus on food and parcel delivery and business logistics.

“Fahim’s passion for Nigeria and its youth was immeasurable,” Gokada said in a statement. “He believed young Nigerians were extremely bright and talented individuals who would flourish if just given the right opportunity.”

Mr. Saleh was also the founding partner in a Manhattan-based venture capital fund, Adventure Capital, that invested in similar transit start-ups in Colombia and Bangladesh.

Clearly, hiring Tyrese was a terrible mistake. Then, after he caught him embezzling, he kept him on and gave him a chance to repay the stolen money, another error. He gave the young man a chance, and it cost him everything.

Sister of murdered tech CEO Fahim Saleh says he was ‘put back together’ for funeral
The sister of Fahim Saleh — the tech CEO who was murdered and dismembered inside his Manhattan apartment — posted an emotional tribute to her “beautiful” brother Thursday, revealing that his severed head and limbs were sewn back onto his body in time for his funeral.

…..
She also recalled having to plead with the funeral home in Hudson Valley for her brother’s body parts to be in the “proper places in the casket” — after she was told it “would not be possible to sew his limbs and head back onto his torso before burial.”

“The day before the funeral, the man called me again,” Ruby wrote. “‘It wasn’t easy, but we were able to put him back together.'”
