During a Q&A last night at the annual Muslim Advocates dinner, United States Attorney General Loretta Lynch confirmed that the Department of Justice is looking into how Irving officials treated Ahmed Mohamed after he brought a clock to school in September.
We have, as you may know, opened an investigation into the case of the young man in Irving, Texas, Lynch said during an interview with Muslim Advocates President and Executive Director Farhana Kher at an Arlington, Virginia, hotel. So we will see where that investigation goes.
Kher then told Lynch that its great to hear that the department has opened an investigation into the Irving, Texas, high school, that case of the treatment of Ahmed Mohamed. She said what happened to the kid with the homemade clock
was an issue of great concern and really struck a cord with many parents, so we really appreciate the departments leadership in that.
