Macomb, IL – In the five years since the terrorist attacks against America, some Muslims in this country have complained about coming under extra scrutiny from law enforcement. One such case concerns a popular pediatrician in Macomb. The Illinois Attorney General's office is accusing him of fraud, but hundreds of local residents contend he's the victim of a modern day witch hunt. Dr. Khalid Dabash is charged with defrauding the state out of a couple thousand dollars. Supporters say Dabash gives much more than that to the community and feel the charges don't make sense. They question whether he's being targeted because he's a Muslim who was born in Egypt. You can listen to News Director Rich Egger's feature on the case by clicking on the audio button above.
