California Imam Killed in Fire, Muslim Group Suspicious of Hate Crime

Summary


Graffiti written on the walls inside the house before the fire that killed Mohammed reportedly said: "F*** you Arab," "KKK, sand n**er," "go home Arab" with American flags and a Nazi swastika also drawn on the walls.

"My father was a deeply caring person who worked toward building peace, unity and harmo- ny among residents of the High Desert," said Hadie Mohammed, the imam's son. "During this time of immense grief, my fami- ly is grateful for the condolences and community support and pray that those who committed this horrific crime will face justice."
