The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) indefatigably pushes the notion that Muslims are victims of widespread harassment and discrimination in the U.S. This is in order to deflect attention away from jihad terror activity and to buttress the notion that counter-terror scrutiny of Muslim communities is simply more of this persecution. But actual “hate crimes” against Muslims are so thin on the ground that they have to be manufactured, as in this case. Every other prisoner has to take off whatever hat or headcovering he or she may be wearing, for security reasons: a weapon could easily be concealed within it. But for the fascists of Hamas-linked CAIR, safety doesn’t matter. Establishing the precedent that Muslims always and everywhere have and should have rights and privileges above and beyond those of the Infidels — that is the only concern.
“Santa Clara Sheriff’s Office denies hijab removal allegations,” KRON, August 5, 2023:
(BCN) — The Santa Clara Sheriff’s Office denied Saturday that one of its deputies forcibly removed a hijab of a Muslim woman that was arrested and booked in a Milpitas correctional facility.
The statement came days after the Council on American-Islamic Relations in the Bay Area (CAIR-SFBA) said the Muslim woman, Asia Aden, had her hijab “violently yanked” from her while being booked into Elmwood Correctional Facility, even though she asked to keep the headwear out of religious beliefs.
“The Sheriff’s Office received the complaint and reviewed the surveillance footage. Force was not used to remove the Hijab and in fact the complainant was asked to remove it herself,” the Sheriff’s public information office said.
“In general, these garments must be searched upon entering the facility before they are returned or another is issued. The Sheriff’s Office is committed to protecting people’s religious rights while also ensuring the safety of everyone in the facilities,” the law enforcement agency explained.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, its collaboration with CAIR after a similar concern in 2021 led to the creation of its “Religious Practices policy” to ensure that anyone wearing a Hijab, Kufi, Turban or Yarmulke will be “reasonably accommodated, subject to the compelling interest for facility security or to prevent self-harm.”…

It is a common strategy for Muslims to falsely sue for big payouts. When these falsehoods are made known, government should have a duty to sue CAIR for defamation.

You beat me to it.

Was there criminal intent by CAIR in filing a false claim?
PRCS says
Hoping the Sheriff’s Department takes legal action against CAIR for filing a false claim.
