Another immigrant truck driver let in under the Biden administration is facing accusations of killing an innocent human being.
“Bekhzod Asrarov, 42, rammed the back of a vehicle on Interstate 71 in Madison County, resulting in the death of Tobias ‘Toby’ Forsythe, 21, who played goalkeeper for the University of Massachusetts at Lowell,” according to Fox News. He also reportedly did not speak English.
While some other foreign truck drivers have killed human beings after being let into the country illegally, Asrarov appears to be here legally under the “diversity lottery” system.
Unlike other visa programs that serve specific purposes, such as attracting high-skilled workers or religious workers, this system’s sole goal is to bring in people from “countries with low rates of immigration to the United States.” In this case, Asrarov came from Uzbekistan.
Asrarov reportedly tried to destroy any evidence of his alleged crime.
The truck driver “tried ripping off the dash camera and tried to destroy it by smashing it,” and “also tried to smash and destroy his three phones and his logging device,” Fox News reported.
Forsythe appears to be the latest victim of migrant truck driver crime.
In May, law enforcement apprehended an illegal alien truck driver named Manvir Singh, who allegedly plowed into three vehicles while driving his Freightliner Cascadia.
He should not be confused with other people named “Singh” arrested for killing people while behind the wheel of a big rig:
Nor should Bekhzod Asrarov from Uzbekistan be confused with Bekzhan Beishekeev from Kyrgyzstan, who illegally entered the country under the Biden administration and was subsequently granted a Commercial Driver’s License by Pennsylvania.
Beishekeev is accused of killing four Amish in Indiana and injuring the non-Amish man who was driving the 15-person van back from work.
Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy has taken steps to crack down on the proliferation of truck drivers, particularly illegal ones. Among his actions are cracking down on driving schools and threatening to cut federal funding to states that do not verify lawful presence.

Commenting on the latest deadly crash, Duffy reiterated that highways must remain safe from truck drivers who don’t speak English.
“He failed his English language proficiency test and state troopers had to use Google Translate to talk to him,” Duffy wrote on X. “We cannot let truckers like Asrarov, who can’t read our road signs or speak to law enforcement, drive 80,000-pound rigs on America’s highways.”
