Leonard McQuay, AKA Khalfani Malik Khaldun, and other Muslim prisoners are being targeted at New Castle Correctional Facility. Khalfani, a practicing Muslim, is being denied his constitutional right to practice his faith. The Incarcerated Muslim Community are being denied certain religious freedoms that are supposed to be protected, even by D.O.C. Policy. Khalfani, as well as several others, have been prevented from praying over Ramadan in the designated areas. We are asking everyone the Assistant Facility Administrator, Scott Fitch, to demand that the Muslim population be allowed to worship during this religious practice without interference and/or harassment from the state.

Hello, I am [calling/emailing] regarding to Mr. Leonard McQuay #874304. Prison authorities at New Castle have violated his and many other Muslim’s rights by denying their right to practice their religion without interference or harassment by Ms. Stewart or anyone else in I.D.O.C. Restriction of allowing prayer service is against the law and I demand that Mr. McQuay be allowed to practice his religion freely and immediately!
