Another Fake "Islamophobic" Attack: Man charged with setting Houston mosque fire says he was a devout attendee
"Devout" Muslim
From Chron:
A Houston man has been arrested in connection with a suspected arson at a mosque on Christmas Day, but the motive for the crime remains a mystery, with the suspect maintaining he was a regular at the mosque.
A spokeswoman for the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives confirmed that the suspect, 37-year-old Gary Nathaniel Moore of Houston, was arrested early Wednesday.
Moore appeared in court at 7 a.m., spokeswoman Nicole Strong said, and bond was set at $100,000. According to a charging instrument released by the Harris County District Clerk, Moore told investigators at the scene that he has attended the storefront mosque for five years, coming five times per day to pray seven days per week.
Moore said he had been at the mosque earlier on Dec. 25 to pray, and had left at about 2 p.m. to go home, according to authorities and court papers.
Moore said he was the last person to leave the mosque and saw no smoke or other signs of fire when he departed, authorities said.
He maintained he had returned to the scene after hearing about the fire from a friend. MJ Khan, president of the Islamic Society of Greater Houston, which operates the mosque, said he was unfamiliar with Moore.
"We are just looking into it ourselves," he said Wednesday morning after learning of the arrest. "We are just really saddened by the whole thing," said Khan.
