Texas attorney general sues ‘Muslim city’ developers over ‘radical plot to destroy land’ after probe finds alleged fraud

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is suing an Islamic community group over claims that their new ‘Muslim city’ is an illegal land development scheme.

Paxton’s filing was against East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC), Community Capital Partners (CCP) and their leaders following a months-long investigation, according to a press release.

‘The leaders behind EPIC City have engaged in a radical plot to destroy hundreds of acres of beautiful Texas land and line their own pockets,’ Paxton said in the statement. 

‘I will relentlessly bring the full force of the law against anyone who thinks they can ignore the rules and hurt Texans. 

‘The unlawful land project known as EPIC City will be stopped, and those responsible will be barred from ever creating another fraudulent operation like this again.’

Plans for EPIC City, which has since rebranded as, The Meadow, suggested 1,000 homes, Islamic schools, and a mosque all over more than 400-acres in Hunt and Collin counties.
