#1 Muzzammil Hassan is the founder and chief executive officer of Bridges TV, which he launched in 2004, amid hopes that it would help portray Muslims in a more positive light.

#3 This was reported in the Buffalo newspaper today. Apparently the gentelman's wife had filed for divorce, and taken out a protective order against him. He is in the county jail awaiting trial.

#4 More -- I googled. There are two stories about this on the website of one of the Buffalo television stations. Here's one of the stories. Apparently the couple arrived on our fair shores from Pakistan. Their four children arrived in Buffalo in the usual way, I imagine.
