Muslim Man Drags 14-Year-Old Girl Out of Missouri School By Her Hair Because of What She Was Wearing
While the man’s role at the University of Missouri is not clear, one thing is crystal clear: Youssif Zaghwani Omar was arrested for allegedly dragging a 14-year-old relative out of school by her hair — for not wearing a hijab.
As reported by the Columbia Daily Tribune, the 53-year-old Omar was at Hickman High School, when he noticed the young girl was not wearing a hijab, the traditional headscarf that some Muslim women wear.
Officer Latisha Stroer said in an email that Omar became irate, grabbed the young girl “very violently by the hair” and pulled her outside and down a flight of stairs.
Stroer also said that Omar allegedly slapped the girl’s face as he pulled her into his car, again, by her hair.
Police arrested Omar on suspicion of felony child abuse. He was released after posting a $4,500 bond.
While some news outlets reported that Omar is an assistant professor at the University of Missouri, other sources say he is a graduate student.
Does it matter?
