Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is an organization designed to protect the civil liberties of Muslims. Traditionally they are in the forefront of media attention to aid Muslims victimized by employers, other groups or governmental agencies. With regards to the Houston Taliban cases, they have played a subdued (low-key) role not getting involved publicly. However, their lawyers have been reported to be defending some of the individuals in the Houston Taliban cases.
Legal defense lawyers referred by CAIR in these cases:
Kobie Diallo William’s Lawyer – Alamdar S. Hamdani
Adnan Babar Mirza’s Lawyer – Khurrum Wahid
