US President Donald Trump on Sunday condemned the killing of an Indian-origin man, Chandra Nagamallaiah, who was beheaded by an "illegal alien" from Cuba in front of his wife and son in Texas, calling it "terrible." The Republican leader emphasised that "time for being soft" on illegal immigrant criminals is over under his watch, vowing to take action against the killer.
"I am aware of the terrible reports regarding the murder of Chandra Nagamallaiah, a well respected person in Dallas, Texas, who was brutally beheaded, in front of his wife and son, by an ILLEGAL ALIEN from Cuba who should have never been in our Country," he said in a post on Truth Social.

Trump further said that the illegal immigrant from Cuba, identified as 37-year-old Yordanis Cobos-Martinez, was previously arrested for various crimes, ranging from child sex abuse to false imprisonment.
"This individual was previously arrested for terrible crimes, including child sex abuse, grand theft auto, and false imprisonment, but was released back into our Homeland under incompetent Joe Biden because Cuba did not want such an evil person in their Country," Trump added.

Taking aim at the Biden administration, he said, "Time for being soft on these Illegal Immigrant Criminals is OVER," under his "watch."
The US president added that the Cuban killer will be "prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law" and "charged with murder in the first degree."
"Rest assured, the time for being soft on these Illegal Immigrant Criminals is OVER under my watch! Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Border Czar Tom Homan, and many others in my Administration, are doing an incredible job in, MAKING AMERICA SAFE AGAIN. This criminal, who we have in custody, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law. He will be charged with murder in the first degree!," he said.
What happened?
Chandra Mouli Nagamallaiah, who was a Dallas motel manager, was brutally beheaded after reportedly telling Yordanis Cobos-Martinez not to use a broken washing machine in front of his wife and son.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) expressed shock and described the beheading as "unthinkable." Soon after the incident, police arrested Cobos-Martinez, who was wearing a blood-soaked T-shirt.
"I don't know how to explain, but he was there and not there at the same time," a witness told NBC DFW.
Chilling videos of the incident, which surfaced on social media, showed the moment Cobos-Martinez tossed the machete he used to attack the manager. According to court records, the suspect left the victim’s head in a trash bin.
According to the affidavit, the suspect admitted to the killing in an interview with authorities.
