The family of Black political activist Malcolm X intends to sue the New York City Police Department, the FBI and the CIA over how they investigated his 1965 assassination.
X’s family, in a press conference Tuesday on the 58th anniversary of his death, said new evidence shows a conspiracy to cloud the case. The family accuses those agencies of planning X’s death and seek $100 million in damages.
In November 2021, two of the three men initially convicted in 1966 of killing X, Muhammad Aziz and Khalil Islam, were exonerated after it was found that exculpatory evidence in their case was never turned over and presented in court. “For years, our family has fought for the truth to come to light concerning his murder and we’d like our father to receive the justice that he deserves. The truth about the circumstances leading to the death of our father is important — not only to his family, but to many followers,” said one of X’s daughters, Ilyasah Shabazz, at the press conference.
