Attorney General Tong Statement Following Attack on Rep. Khan Outside Eid Al-Adha Prayers
(Hartford, CT) – Attorney General William Tong issued the following statement in solidarity with State Rep. Maryam Khan who was violently attacked outside Eid Al-Adha prayers in Hartford on Wednesday.“The attack on Rep. Khan outside Eid Al-Adha prayers was violent, unprovoked, and hateful. The Eid Al-Adha gathering was life-affirming, peaceful, and joyful, bringing together families from across Connecticut’s diverse and beautiful Muslim community. I stand with Maryam this morning--as I prayed with her on Wednesday morning--in solidarity with and in strong support of Connecticut’s Islamic community,” said Attorney General Tong.
