EXCLUSIVE: Bosnian immigrant murdered by teenagers wielding hammers was victim of 'targeted killing' and NOT race hate, says fiancée whom he saved from mob

<snip>

Speaking as she prepared to see her fiance's body at a funeral home, Miss Mujkanovic, herself a Bosnian immigrant, said: 'At first I thought it was the wrong place at the wrong time but after I've had time to think about it I really think it was set up.

'He did have an altercation with somebody and he did defend himself.

'I don't think it's because of the color of the skin or that we're Bosnian, it's set up because of the person who he had the altercation with.'

Miss Mujkanovic said he had previously had a row with a former family friend.

Miss Mujkanovic and the other two occupants of the car, her aunt and one of the aunt's friends, got out and the fight began.

At one point the aunt hit one of the attackers with the heel of her shoe but they did not attack her.
Neither did they harm Miss Mujkanovic even though she was standing there.

She said: 'One of the guys was standing inches away from me with a hammer saying: 'Don't move!' so why didn't he hit me?
'He had every single possible opportunity there, so I don't understand why they didn't injure the witnesses, why they just left me alone.'
