A Muslim housing development in Texas is under investigation by the Justice Department amid concerns it would “violate the constitutional rights of Jewish and Christian Americans”.
The proposed development, put forward by the East Plano Islamic Centre (Epic), is touted as a “thriving ecosystem” that “paves the way for prosperity” and would be centred around a mosque and a private Islamic school.
Greg Abbott, the governor of Texas, accused the planner of creating an exclusively Muslim community that would impose Islamic law on residents.
