ESPOO, Finland -- The gunman who killed five people during a shooting rampage in
Finland apparently chose his victims, police said Friday.

Chief investigator Esa Gronlund of the National Bureau of Investigation told
reporters that a preliminary investigation has indicated that Ibrahim
Shkupolli's method of shooting the five Finns, most of them at a shopping mall
in the town of Espoo, suggest that he had planned Thursday's slayings, though
the investigator declined to provide details.

The 43-year-old Shkupolli, an ethnic Albanian immigrant from Kosovo, committed
suicide after his attack.

Investigator Henrik Niklander said police are examining the relationship between
Shkupolli and the people he gunned down in Espoo, which is a few miles
(kilometers) outside the Finnish capital, Helsinki.

"The fact all victims were employees of the (same) Prisma store seems to
indicate that we're not dealing with a coincidence," Niklander told The
Associated Press.

Previously police had been reluctant to speculate whether the killer fired his
handgun randomly in the Sello mall in Espoo, Finland's second biggest city, or
if he had chosen his victims.

Four of those slain - three men and one woman - were working in the Prisma
grocery store when they were shot. The fifth victim - Shkupolli's former Finnish
girlfriend - had been an employee at the same store, though she was found dead
in a nearby apartment. She had won a restraining order against Shkupolli, who
allegedly had stalked her for years.

After killing his victims, Shkupolli returned home and committed suicide. Police
found his body after launching a citywide manhunt.

Shkupolli arrived in Finland in 1992, the Interior Ministry said. He applied for
Finnish citizenship but was rejected due to his criminal past, which included
assault, traffic violations and an arrest in 2003 for carrying an unlicensed gun.

During Thursday's rampage Shkupolli used an unlicensed handgun, a fact that has
stirred intense debate in the Nordic country after two deadly school shooting
over the past two years. Finland has a long tradition of hunting and ranks among
the top five nations in the world regarding civilian gun ownership. The country
of 5.3 million people has 1.6 million firearms in private hands.

In a condolence message, Prime Minister Matti Vanhanen noted the large number
handguns in Finland and said the probe into Thursday's shooting would "focus on
the unlicensed gun and how the shooter obtained it."

In September 2008, a lone gunman killed nine fellow students and a teacher at a
vocational college before shooting himself to death in the western town of
Kauhajoki.

In November 2007, an 18-year-old student fatally shot eight people and himself
at a high school in southern Finland.

Finland's 5,000 Kosovar Albanians have expressed concern that Shkupolli's
rampage will increase public anger against foreigners during a debate now taking
place among lawmakers and the media regarding immigration and the social
benefits immigrants receive and their overall status in the Nordic country.

Driton Nushi, a Kosovar Albanian community leader in Finland, said he hoped the
public won't misunderstand the crime.

"Do they take it as an individual case or do they think wrongly - as some of
them already do - that all the foreigners are behind this?" Nushi said in an
interview with Associated Press Television.

"It's only an individual, a family case, a crime of passion. Nothing else,
nothing more," Nushi said.

=======================

And Driton Nushi starts the takkiya.

Yes the muslimes say the same thing about the genocides of infidels/
kuffars
committed in the name of allah and bumhammad in:

Armenia
Sudan/Darfur

Oops, I forgot, the Turkish muslime fucks still deny the genocide of
upwards of 2.5 million Assyrian and Armenian Christians never happened
and have outlawed any and all discussion of same in Turkey and have,
in fact, murdered people who have had the gall to discuss it.

Ditto for the muslime systematic persecution of people of other
faiths. It's
all just coincidence.
