Rahami Family Sued City for ‘Discrimination’

The family of suspected New York City bomber Ahmad Khan Rahami once sued the city of Elizabeth, N.J., claiming anti-Muslim “discrimination.” The city’s Mayor Chris Bollwage confirmed Monday that that Rahami’s family runs First American Fried Chicken in Elizabeth, which was formerly a 24-hour restaurant until noise complaints led to the city forcing it to close at 10 p.m. nightly. According to CNN, the Rahamis sued the city and its police in 2011, claiming they’d conspired to “discriminte” against them and “illegally harass” the restaurant into changing its operations. In the same case, owner Mohammad Rahami claimed a neighboring business owner said “Muslims make too much trouble in this country” and “don’t belong here.”
