Kabary Salem, a former Olympic boxer from Egypt, has been brought back to New York to face a murder charge in the death of his daughter, Ola, according to the New York Post.
The Post reported that a Staten Island grand jury indicted Salem, 52, on Nov. 5 in connection with the October 2019 death of Ola, who was 25. Her body was found by a jogger in Bloomingdale Park in the Prince Bay neighborhood of Staten Island. An indictment is a formal accusation, not a finding of guilt.
Law enforcement sources told the Post that the NYPD’s Regional Fugitive Task Force located Salem in the Middle East on Dec. 3 and returned him to New York on Friday. The sources said he left the United States after Ola’s body was discovered.
Salem is a former professional middleweight who went by the nickname The Egyptian Magician. Reports note that an opponent died following a 1999 fight he took part in, in Kansas City.
Baller Alert has not seen a statement from Salem or an attorney for him at the time of this report.
