Muslim burial site in upstate New York runs into problems


Leaders in New York are trying to shut down a local Muslim community center's burial site. The name of this place is Sufi Muslim Osmanli Naksibendi Hakkani Dergahi and they want to shut it down because they are saying that this burial center hasn't been legalized as a burial center, instead they say it's a private property and that people shouldn't bury people there. Bob McCarthy said that this was not his problem, that "What they do in New York City has nothing to do with us" but still according to Hans Hass who is the representative of the burial center with CNN said that he and the town voted that the burying of people there should stop but Hass said that this burial center was approved in 2005 and that it wasn't exclusively for Muslims, anyone who wants to bury someone can come and do it.
