Tashnuba Age 16.

 

Jamaica, NY

 

The following information was recorded on April 05, 2005. All information was recorded first hand from the parents of Tashnuba:

 

Two weeks prior to March 24th

 

Tashnuba a 16 year old high school student who attended Environmental Studies High School in Manhattan was visited by two detectives from the local precinct. The detectives came without warrants and spoke to Tashnuba’s mother. The detectives were identified by Tashnuba’s mother as one being Pakistani female and the other white American male who were both in civilian clothing. Tashnuba’s mother told them to come back when her husband was home, but the detectives insisted on talking to her and coming inside the house. They did not show her any warrant or any paper. Tashnuba’s mother sincerely let both detectives in. The detectives came in claiming to investigate Tashnuba’s absence from school while she never been to school since September 2004. Tashnuba’s mother explained that Tashnuba would be doing home schooling and will be obtaining a GED due to problems arising at school with her Islamic dress code and the school’s dress code. The male detective asked if Tashnuba had plans to go to Saudi Arabia. The female detective then proceeded to search the house and entered Tashnuba’s room. There the detective searched through Tashnuba’s belongings for more than one hour without any warrant. The next day Tashnuba’s mother received a phone call from the female detective who fabricated to Tashnuba’s mother that Tashnuba believed in extremist beliefs and promoted concepts like suicide bombing. Tashnuba made it very clear that she was pro-life and was against such concepts. The mother said she didn’t raise Tashnuba with such concepts. Tashnuba validated the fabrication made by the detectives and reaffirmed that she believes in a peaceful and pro-life religion.

 

On March 24th Tashnuba was visited by two agents at 5 AM in the morning. Her mother was approached and the agents told her they were from INS. Two Special Agents came without any form of warrant or paper. They claimed they were from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. The agents approached the mother, who did not speak English fluently, and requested that she sign a document (the father was not home at that morning). According to the mother the document was permission to only ask Tashnuba questions. The agents told her mother that the reason they were taking Tashnuba was because of a political asylum case and that her case was dismissed because she did not show up at her appointment date. According to Tashnuba’s mother there were about ten to twelve agents who came into the house and searched through the house for almost two hours. They confiscated Tashnuba’s computer, her reading materials including personal journals, notebooks and her mother’s cell phone. The agents insisted they take 16 year old Tashnuba alone with them to Federal Plaza and not her mother because of Tashnuba’s four month infant brother. Even though Tashnuba’s brother and sister were evolved in the same political asylum case only Tashnuba was taken and detained. She was held at the Plaza for eleven hours, from 7AM to 6PM. In tears Tashnuba’s mother said that at the Plaza Tashnuba was not questioned about her immigration but threatened that if she did not comply her brothers and sisters would be sent to foster homes and her parents would be deported back to Bangladesh. After being threatened Tashnuba was asked if she was part of any terrorist organizations and interrogated her about her beliefs and conviction in Islam.

 

Tashnuba was then taken to Pennsylvania and held there at a youth detention facility at the following address:

 

Berks Family Shelter Care Facility

1243 County Welfare Road

Leesport, PA 19533

 

Till today she is being held there. Tashnuba who believes in wearing the Islamic veil the "nikab" is not allowed to wear the dress code at her current detention center. This violates her ability to practice her religion.

 

The parents proceeded to contact an immigration lawyer to free their 16 year old daughter.

According to the lawyer the judge has stated that the lawyer needs to provide evidence that she’s not a terrorist. The next hearing scheduled Friday, April 8, 2005.

 

Upon her recent visit Tashnuba’s mother said she saw Tashnuba after two weeks and she was very upset. Officer and supervisor at the facility allowed the mother to see Tashnuba and speak to her. This was the first time they were allowed to speak to her and she told them of what events had taken place in the last two weeks.

 

The family has been torn by the abduction and detention of 16 year old minor Tashnuba. Tashnuba’s family now live in fear. They are unable to sleep at night and keep all their doors and windows locked. They are even afraid to step outside. Tashnuba’s father said that it is a very difficult state for anyone to endure, to watch their child being taken away from them and not hear from them for more than two weeks. Tashnuba’s father believes his family is being singled out as Muslims like all the other Muslim Americans who have been harassed after September 11th.

Jazakallah Kheiran....I was saddened by the incident about American terrorism..This is to show that USA has some grudge with ISLAM as a religion and that it has practically to finish ISLAM at all cost.

 

That is why we need to have strict conviction in ISLAM..

 

ISLAM is not wearing jeans and HIJAAB..as some AMERICANS would like us to believe.By wearing jeans..You must have other Cover for your body..

 

The Holy Quraan says

YUSUFALI: Their intention is to extinguish Allah's Light (by blowing) with their mouths: But Allah will complete (the revelation of) His Light, even though the Unbelievers may detest (it).

 

They will never be able to change a bit of ISLAM...

The US has no grude against Islam. Where did u get that? Remember it was 19 Muslim men that attacked them killing nearly 3000 ppl. They have every right to defend themselves. That doesnt mean they dont abuse their powers like in Guantanamo (spelling) prison and in other cases. And you are really mistaken if u thing the average american cares about muslims. Americans and their elites care only about making money.

[hot_chocolata]

The US has no grudge against Islam??? Are you sure about that.

Ya Habibi, don't be naive, do you not hear about all the killings that are occuring daily? And I'm not talking about places that have money. No, I'm talking about sanctions that were imposed on Sudan and the like. I'm talking about the war on Afghanistan. What does Afghanistan have to offer? Besides killing muslim civilians what does America know?

May Allah free the poor brothers and sisters caught up in this fued between us and the kafirs

Look americans care about one thing more than anything else and that is to continue to be most powerful nation in the world. They wud do anything to maintain their current status. They are also willing to fight against anyone who threatens their unique position in the world. But I can assure the US has no plans to harm muslims simply because they are muslims. The case you cited, about afghanistan, while you are right and afghanistan had little to do with their war on terror, US had to invade that country to vent america's anger after 9/11 and it was also where Osama was.

 

The US has done more to South Americans than against muslims. Would be right if S. Americans said the US has a grude against them. Of course not. During the cold war the US was involved in S. America mainly to limit the influence of the soviets. Now that the cold war is over, Islam is rightly or wrongly in the eyes of the americans their enemy. So muslims will be in the line of fire. In few years time, hopefully, China will be the US's next enemy (thats the real reason the US is building the STAR WARS based missile defense system) and muslim world will be forgoten by americans.

salam all

 

IT has been nearly 3 months since i came here and it is like ohhh too many topics to catch up with. THe story is not convincing...there are too many holes in this story and that is why i haven't believed the events to have occured.

First no detectives or FBI insugence are just going to knock knock and inspect your home without proof...even though they might want to do so.

Second the mother just complied easily tall this time without further search of what these groups were and their aim. She too does not really mind her 16 old daughter is taken to a detetion centre and rather worries for her (mothers) safety at home?? There is a chapter in this story that is not being revealed to us somehow and there is some other reason for the raid of this muslim family's home. Maybe a history or connection with some islamic religious groups (that i don't call fundamentalists or all those dispiciple names the coalition gives).

But may Allah make it easy for them either way.

Do u guys really understand how America is against ISLAM..

 

First the fellow who took my issues head on must have listened to BUSH speech in Europe Last February..When he listens to that Speech and know the content is when he can Say if America is against ISLAM or not..Mind you we ain't talking about an average american.

 

BUSH was talking about liberating WOMEN..by getting them their freedom...By liberating ISLAM...What kind of freedom? Getting naked? or liberating ISLAM by giving them visas to settle in USA like refugees and changing their brains and Women & children so that they start wearing jeans? Who gave him the mandate of Liberating ISLAM..

BUSH was actually saying WOMEN were harrased by MEN by putting on HIJAAB...and that he wants to give them freedom to go to clubs, Wear jeans and removing HIJAAB..disobey their families and so on..is that what ISLAM is all about?

 

USA does fight ISLAM by propaganda..ISLAM gave WOMEN their rights from Prophet Mohammed's Time..WOMEN were being killed upon birth..When ISLAM came..that stopped.

There was nothing like INHERITANCE for women in all other religion..When ISLAM came..Where men couldn't inherit Women properties and belongings, Women could still inherit what her man left behind..Read on

 

1.She is exempt from some religious duties, i.e., prayers and fasting, in her regular periods and at times of confinement.

2.She is exempt from all financial liabilities.

3.As a mother, she enjoys more recognition and higher honor in the sight of God (31:14-15;46:15).

 

and more...

What kind of FREEDOM does BUSH want to give to muslim women..or think ISLAM needs liberation?

 

GETTING NAKED.....? This is one of the fight against ISLAM..When you read BUSH'S speech to EUROPE is when you talk in this forum..

 

BUSH was talking of freedom from MORROCO to AFGHANISTAN..where muslims inhabit..Why didn't he talk about INDIA TO JAPAN...as an exmaple if he doesn't have in mind...ISLAM...

 

In other words he was typically saying..This muslims..(the ones who live from MOROCCO to AFGHANISTAN)are the guys we are fighting with spiritually/mentally/physically/ and through propaganda..

 

Let us see if he is going to be succesful in his war games against ISLAM..

 

am sure he is gonna be the loser..

Dont always listen to what Bush says. He often talks the talk but rarely walks the walk. He can talk about liberating muslims women as much as he wants, only muslim woman can liberate themselves. If muslim woman dont want to be liberated then Bush's speechs and actions can be ignored as they will fail.

But mind you, BUSH's speech spitted the hatred against ISLAM..and that is why our muslim brothers and sisters have been harassed in and outside the USA.

 

We have lot of work to do on that line.

Something is fishy in this story. If it is true I hope that her all the best.

 

And why isn't Care involved this is why I mean this seems really shady. Its the law they have to have a warrant and why didn't they scream help at that moment.

 

May be it one of those bogus stories that people are trying to get money...
