Zohran Mamdani receives car bomb threat in vile voicemail — prompting NYPD hate crime probe


A vile bigot left state Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani’s office an expletive-filled, anti-Muslim voicemail Wednesday threatening to bomb his car — one of several recent death threats the mayoral contender has received, his campaign and police said.

The NYPD’s hate crimes unit is investigating the threats against Mamdani, a Muslim US citizen who was born in Uganda, cops said.

The same unidentified man left two voicemails — both of which were obtained by The Post — that mix racist bile with chilling threats of violence, sources said.

“You’re a terrorist piece of s–t, and you’re not welcome in New York or in America, neither is your f–king family so they should get the f–k out,” the sicko said in the message Wednesday.

“Go start your car and see what happens. I’d keep an eye on your house and family. Watch your f–king back every f–king second until you get the f–k out of America. Nobody wants your terrorist ways here. And check your beeper, too, you terrorist f–k,” he caller said, apparently referring to Israel’s pager attacks against Hezbollah. “Beep beep.”

Mamdani’s Queens office has received four voicemails going back to March that make anti-Muslim threats, police said.

A staffer reported the threats after receiving the disturbing Wednesday voicemail, which appears to be made by the same caller who left a similarly alarming message on June 11, sources said.

“While Zohran does not own a car, the violent and specific language of what appears to be a repeat caller is alarming, and we are taking every precaution,” said a spokesman for Mamdani’s campaign.

“While this is a sad reality, it is not surprising after millions of dollars have been spent on dehumanizing, Islamophobic rhetoric designed to stoke division and hate. Violence and racism should have no place in our politics.”

The hate crime investigation comes as Mamdani, who is running neck-and-neck with former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary, faced an uproar over his refusal to denounce the “globalize the intifada” rallying cry — which many consider an incitement to violence against Jews.

Mamdani has repeatedly said he rejects violence and antisemitism. He emotionally spoke Wednesday with tears in his eyes about the Islamophobic death threats he and his family have received, but didn’t specify details.

The hateful caller, in the June 11 message, told Mamdani to go back to Uganda before someone shoots him in the head and “gets rid” of his family.

“You are not compatible with our Western values,” the racist caller said. “So stop spewing your antisemitic rhetoric and get the fuck out of America.”

The calls were made from an untraceable number, sources said.

“There are no arrests and the investigation remains ongoing by the Hate Crime Task Force,” police said.
