Mayor Zohran Mamdani<\/a> said that a 22-year-old Bangladeshi man shot multiple times by NYPD officers in Queens last week<\/a> during a mental health crisis needs treatment, not criminal charges, as the city prepared to release body-worn camera footage from the incident.<\/p>\n

Speaking at a press conference on the Lower East Side, Mamdani said he had viewed the footage himself after meeting with the Chakraborty family and visiting Jabez Chakraborty in the hospital, where the young man remains in critical condition. The NYPD<\/a> is expected to release the video to the public on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
