NYPD found no trace of terrorism while spying on Muslims, says report --The report, which was obtained by the AP, showed that the spying in Newark took place for months during 2007, and was so hush-hush that even Mayor Cory Booker was unaware of it. 22 Feb 2012 Abdul Kareem Abdullah of Newark was born in the United States and became a Muslim years ago... The New York City police department secretly spied on and compiled a report on him, his wife and customers at his restaurant. The NYPD's Demographics Unit conducted similar surveillance operations of other Muslims in Newark and on Long Island, filming and listening in on conversations where they worship, at stores and restaurants they frequent, and at places where they work. When the mission was concluded, the NYPD put together a 60-page report about their operations -- which uncovered no evidence of terrorism or criminal behavior.
