The front desk supervisor of a troublesome Kew Gardens hotel home to a slew of shootings and sex trafficking charges in the past year, was arrested on Monday, Jan. 11, after an investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office.

Gulshan Gandhi, the front desk supervisor at the Umbrella Hotel, located at 124-18 Queens Blvd., faces two counts of criminal nuisance in the second degree, Katz said. In his role as front desk supervisor Gandhi, 68, created “conditions that endangered the safety and health of hotel guests and the community at large,” Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz said.

The infamous hotel has been the scorn of residents and local elected officials for the past year. 

 The four men involved in the street killing are still on the loose.

Using those broad standards, Katz should be locking herself up along with droves of Queens politicians.

What a disgrace. What is the poor manager to do against armed thugs and sex traffickers?

Shame, shame Queens DA!

Well our so called progressive "justice" system on display.
The manger, almost 70 years old gets punished for all the violent crimes, guns, prostitution which in all honesty he can do jack crap about.

These people are either not human or they are gone with the wind.

Well people this is what communism looks like.

Tell me he was one of the criminals who worked at the Martinique Hotel, the notorious welfare hotel across from Macy's in Manhattan. Tell me he was a front desk clerk who doubled as a pimp, a loan shark and drug dealer.

With the record of places like the Martinique Hotel, why is the City creating more welfare hotels/motels?

I worked across the street from the Martinique and knew it to be a dangerous location. I could see from my desk on the 7th Floor what they had done with the scaffolding. There was no one working on it all but they put up yellow raincoats on hangers to make it look like people were working on the façade. What that was about I have no idea but showed that they were pulling all kinds of scams.

These hotels are cash cows. They get way more from the City per room on a nightly basis than they would for a rent stabilized apartment.

How about he's deported back to his country of origin and can't return to the USA?

Martinique Hotel,

All true, but apples to oranges comparison.

70 year old manager is not pimping and shooting people.
Right next door to the political hack DA's office, across from Queens County Criminal Court.

The hotels are part of the flood good neighborhoods with derelict criminals for good money of course.

Fat chance of that happening. After next week when The Usurpers complete their coup Trump's wall will come down and fine folk like this will be pouring in like never before. They will become the truly privileged elite in this now banana republic.
