Iowa imam charged with sexual abuse; SNAP responds
Statement by Barbara Dorris, Outreach Director, 314-862-7688 [email protected]
Police have charged an Iowa imam with sexual abuse and sexual exploitation by a member of the clergy.
A 42-year-old woman and her 18-year-old daughter were sexually assaulted by a Muslim religious official in their home. Nermin Spahic was invited into their home to perform a religious ceremony to help with the daughter’s personal issues.
It is outrageous that a man would abuse his religious status. We urge officials at the Islamic and Cultural Center Bosniak to encourage anyone with more information to contact the authorities.
