Ahmed Rehab says the position was revoked because of a false anti-Muslim blog attacking Kifah. "There was nothing that would prevent him from fulfilling this role.

And instead decided to drop him to avoid any controversy. That's unacceptable," said Rehab.

That's an answer we never received from the Illinois State Police."
