Question: Despite all the allegations, Why Aref Abedi still keeping Sayed Jumaa at ICR Masjid Reseda ?
Answer: No, I don’t believe Aref Abedi would let Sayed Jumaa go. In my view, Sayed Jumaa serves as Aref Abedi’s primary enforcer. For example, if someone raises questions about financial transparency or the board of directors, it often appears that the matter is quickly handed over to Sayed Jumaa.
Critics have alleged that he uses intimidation tactics to discourage people from returning to ICR. They claim this has included mocking individuals, arranging for vehicles to block someone in the parking lot, or pursuing legal action based on allegations they believe to be false. One example that has been publicly discussed involves a lawsuit alleging threats against his wife, Ghada; additional information has been posted by critics at icrwatch.com.
In my opinion, Sayed Jumaa is the backbone of Aref Abedi’s operation.
