Hawzah News Agency- “We stand in solidarity with CCIE as they face targeting by French authorities who seem to prioritize targeting people for their faith over democratic rights'', said CAIR.
The French government’s campaign against its own Muslim population was highlighted by restrictions placed on minority populations during the 2024 Olympics. At the time, PBS reported, “Minorities — largely with backgrounds in former French colonies — are often among those forbidden from leaving their neighborhoods and required to report daily to police, their lawyers say''.
Earlier this year, CAIR said that Islamophobia is “spinning out of control” in Europe after a Muslim woman was murdered in Germany and a mosque was burned during anti-immigrant riots in Spain.
Last month, CAIR condemned the attempted arson of a Muslim prayer room in Châtillon-sur-Seine, France. CAIR’s mission is to protect civil rights, enhance understanding of Islam, promote justice, and empower American Muslims.
