Attorney: Ohio Mosque a Threat to Runaway Teen

The attorney for a runaway teen who claims her Muslim parents threatened to kill her for converting to Christianity claimed in court documents Monday that the Ohio mosque the girl’s family attends has ties to Islamic terrorist organizations such as al-Qaida.

Orlando attorney John Stemberger said Rifqa Bary should be put in state custody because she is in “clear and present danger” from the Noor Islamic Cultural Center near Columbus. He said the mosque hosted extremist speakers and supported a Muslim scholar with ties to the militant group Hamas.
