Grand jury seeks CAIR documents

The FBI have issued a grand jury subpoena to the attorney of one of the Muslim Mafia authors. The book alleges that CAIR engaged in criminal activity and uses over 10,000 pages of CAIR documents to back up their claims.

Last month CAIR was successful in gaining a temporary restraining ordering the authors of Muslim Mafia to return the documents. However, before the authors could comply with the court order the FBI issued a grand jury subpoena seeking those very same documents. Heh.

Omar Hurre, director of Abubakar As-Saddique Islamic Center, the largest mosque in Minnesota, said about 20 young Somalis have asked him for advice about grand jury subpoenas in recent months.
This is the mosque that several of the missing Somali youth attended before going to Somali to wage jihad for al Shabaab....
"Most of them just come to me and say, 'Hey, I got this. What should I do?"' he said. "Some of them are even crying when they come to me and confused and scared because they think when they get a visit from any law enforcement agency ... that maybe they did something wrong."

The mosque has directed local Somalis seeking advice to the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which refers them to an attorney to be advised of their rights.
