Ground Zero Iman charged with using Mosque funds for personal use |
2013-02-06 |
The former imam of the controversial “Ground Zero” mosque used millions of dollars in donations to fund a lavish lifestyle of travel and cars, a bombshell lawsuit charges. The court papers, filed Tuesday in Manhattan Supreme Court, allege that Imam Feisel Abdul Rauf pocketed $3 million from the Malaysian government and another $167,000 from private donors. The money — intended to fund a pair of non-profits — was used by Rauf and his wife Daisy Khan to buy real estate, pricey trips and vacations, entertainment and a luxury sports car, the suit charged. |
