November 13. Greensboro: Jamaat al-Muslimeen reports that 68 year old Afaf Saudi, who was brutalized by police, has been discharged from prison. Owing to the efforts of Imam Badi Ali and others, the case of Ms. Afaf was covered by all the local TV and radio stations. The mayor
of the city visited her in hospital.
The local peace activists are urging the government to discipline the police and sensitize it to:
1. The rights of the elderly. The police should not handcuff the weak and the elderly as it does others.
2. The rights of Muslim women. It is an outrage for a Muslim woman to be roughed up by male policemen. Even third world countries have female police for women.
3. The police must apologize to the woman in Arabic and French. [And other demands.]
New Trend notes: The Greensboro case has shown that CAIR and other funded organizations are
redundant. When a local incident happens, the local community should rally and help the victim.
Long distance control by heavily funded groups is not needed.
