CAIR fires leader for working with anti-Muslim group

2021-12-16

[IsraelTimes] An Ohio chapter of the nation’s largest Moslem civil liberties and advocacy organization fires its leader for ethical and professional breaches that it says include a years-long secret association with an anti-Moslem group.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations

... the Moslem Brüderbund's American arm ...
-Ohio says executive and legal director Romin Iqbal was informed of his termination yesterday, following the conclusion of an investigation by an independent forensic expert ordered by its national headquarters. Iqbal had been suspended since last week.

The probe found "conclusive evidence that Iqbal had spent years recording CAIR network meetings and passing information regarding CAIR’s national advocacy work to a known anti-Moslem hate group," a release says.

During a briefing, spokesperson Whitney Siddiqi identifies the group as the Investigative Project on Terrorism, led by Steve Emerson.

CAIR-Ohio says that "after being confronted with clear evidence of misconduct," Iqbal admitted to secretly working for the group. Iqbal declines comment through his attorney, Dave Thomas.

The Columbus Dispatch has more about longtime CAIR employee, Romin Iqbal, esq.
