The FBI has closed its investigation into Elshinawy because there was no criminal wrongdoing, but the NYPD still deems him a threat because he is “highly regarded by so many young and impressionable individuals.” In other words, the NYPD surveillance document obtained by the AP says that Elshinawy is being investigated because of his religion and his respectable behavior. An informant attended Elshinawy’s wedding and recorded everything that happened turning it over to the NYPD for viewing.
