‘I’ve just slaughtered my entire family’: Markham man pleads guilty to murdering his mother, father, sister and grandmother over several hours last summer

After murdering his entire family over nine hours in their Markham home the day before they would have discovered his lie about graduating from university, Menhaz Zaman told online friends what he’d done.
“I’ve just slaughtered my entire family and will most likely spend life in jail if I manage to survive,” Zaman told a friend from Minnesota on the messaging app Discord. His friend asked where he was and urged him to turn himself in.
“I’m at home,” Zaman wrote. “Killed my dad last. The shaking has stopped.”
The messages sparked desperate international attempts by his friends to alert local authorities, leading York Regional Police to arrive at the Markham home the next day to arrest Zaman.
On Thursday afternoon, Zaman, 24, pleaded guilty to the second-degree murder of his mother and the first-degree murder of his father, grandmother and sister in a Zoom court appearance in which he appeared by video link from the Central East Correctional Centre.
In a soft but clear voice, Zaman admitted he first murdered his mother, Momotaz Begum, 50, in their home on Castlemore Avenue at about 3 p.m. on July 27, 2019.
According to an agreed statement of facts, he then plotted to kill the rest of his family. An hour later he killed his grandmother Firoza Begum, 70. He then waited several hours for his younger sister Malesa Zaman, 21, to come home from work at Food Basics. In that time he napped and played video games, according to the agreed facts.
At 11 p.m. he killed his sister. Finally, he killed his father, Moniruz Zaman, 59, a Beck taxi driver who arrived home around midnight.
The deaths of Malesa — who was studying science at university and, according to Toronto Life, dreamed of being a neurosurgeon — and her parents and grandmother shocked their friends and the local Bangladeshi community. Moniruz and Momotaz had just marked their 25th wedding anniversary and their son had given a speech celebrating them at the party.
According to the agreed statement of facts read by the Crown, Zaman messaged Devonte Nicholson, a friend from Minnesota at 11:54 p.m. through the messaging app Discord and said: “I’ve just slaughtered my entire family and will most likely spend life in jail if I manage to survive. I hope I made you laugh at one point or another. I hope you remember the good times. I will miss you all.”
Zaman also sent his friend photos of four people with blood on their necks. A bloody knife was next to one of the people, described by Nicholson as an elderly lady.
A police investigation revealed he’d been leading a double life, the Crown said. His parents believed he was due to graduate from an engineering program at York University on July 28, 2019. In reality, he had failed out of Seneca College’s electronics engineering technology program after a year, in 2014-15. He had been pretending to go to classes but was really spending his time at the mall and the gym, and at home gaming.
In messages with another friend, Maroon Ayoub, on the day of the killings, Zaman said: “I know I am a pathetic coward sub-human. I will be turning myself in.”
He said he’d been planning the murders for three years.
Ayoub, who lives in Israel, asked why.
Zaman explained he started skipping classes in his first year of university and had to repeat courses. “It is here in second semester I started getting depressed and became an atheist and ultimately created this plan. So for three years I’ve been telling my parents I go to uni when actually I was just hanging out at the mall four days a week.”
Zaman said he “did this because I don’t want my parents to feel the shame of having a son like me. I choose to kill them instead out of cowardice. Due to me being an atheist I believe this is the only life we get. I know it might sound confusing but what’s done is done and what has been planned has been concluded. I’m sorry if this makes you upset. Please try to remember the good times.”
On July 28, 2019, Toronto police informed York Regional Police that they’d received information that someone may have “slaughtered their entire family.” Zaman’s friend Nicholson from Minnesota had called the Toronto police non-emergency line — he believed Zaman lived in Toronto — and told them of the messages Zaman sent through Discord. The Toronto police cybercrime unit contacted Discord to track the IP address Zaman was using. They were able to link it to the Castlemore Avenue home in Markham and informed York police.
When the police arrived at the home the day after the killing, Zaman peered out from an upstairs window. He came down and opened the front door. He was detained while the house was searched.
Police found four bodies in the home — Zaman’s mother and grandmother together in the master bedroom, his sister in the guest bedroom and his father in his sister’s room. He had struck each of them on their heads, most likely with a crowbar, and then cut their throats while they were on the ground, according to the agreed statement of facts.
