California Man Charged with Murder of Tow Operator Deemed Incompetent for Trial
606
Malik Dosouqi, who has been charged in the murder of tow truck operator John Sione Pekipaki, 31, and taxi driver Abdulmalek Nasher, 32, near Woodside, Calif., in June has been declared mentally incompetent to stand trial.
Two court appointed doctors made the declaration after a San Mateo County judge ordered an evaluation of Dosouqi, of Pacifica, Calif. Dosouqi has been charged with allegedly luring Nasher to a remote location for a taxi ride and fatally stabbing him. He then lured Pekipaki to a nearby location on the premise of a tow call before fatally stabbing him.
Dosouqi is being held without bail and prosecutors have asked for time to review the doctor’s reports. The case will resume Nov. 1.
