Soheil Mostajabian has posted “Death to America” on social media, defended the Islamic regime, and insulted protesters who were killed in January 2026, while thousands of people have lost their lives.
Such statements raise serious concerns about supporting extremism and disrespecting victims, especially while living in a free country and benefiting from democratic values
Serigne Saliou Ndoye is model citizen; he is a rideshare driver living and working in Texas. I am writing this testimony to bring public awareness to an unjust and deeply distressing incident that led to his arrest; an experience that now threatens his freedom, livelihood, and immigration status in the United States.
He picked up a rideshare customer as part of his regular workday. During the ride, the passenger asked him to play music. He politely declined, as he prefers to maintain a calm and neutral environment for driving. This simple refusal escalated into something he could never have imagined.
Unbeknownst to him, the passenger texted her friends during the ride, instructing them to call the police. She later accused him of sequestration—a serious and false claim suggesting he had held her against her will.
He was shocked. He never prevented her from leaving the vehicle, nor did He behave aggressively or inappropriately in any way.
When the police arrived, he tried to explain himself, but his limited understanding of English made it difficult to defend himself clearly. Rather than taking the time to understand his side or verify the facts, the officers quickly arrested him based solely on the accusations.
None of the allegations against him are true. The trauma of that day has affected every part of his life.
This experience has made me realize how quickly misunderstandings—especially those compounded by language barriers and bias—can escalate into life-altering consequences. I am sharing this story to shed light on how easily immigrant workers can become victims of false accusations, rushed policing, and a system that too often ignores our voices.
I call on the public, the media, and justice advocates to stand with Mr. Serigne Saliou Ndoye. No one should be silenced by a language barrier or condemned without being heard.
I've known Serigne Saliou since around 2015-2016, and I can say without hesitation that he is one of the most positively influential people l've ever met.
When I was a teenager struggling with confidence, he played a key role in helping me grow into the man I am today. He encouraged me to be disciplined, to step out of my comfort zone, and to lead with integrity-values I've carried with me into my professional and personal life.
Serigne Saliou is a guide, a mentor, and a role model-especially to the youth. He is well known across Texas and the broader North American Senegalese community for his peaceful demeanor, his beautiful recitation of religious prayers (Khassida of Serigne Touba), and his strong presence on social media and television. Multiple TV stations air his videos daily, and he has a large following online because of the purity and sincerity he represents.
If you search his full name on Google, he's the first to appear—always in the context of worship, community service, or uplifting others.
What's even more important to understand is that our community is not one where people commonly face criminal charges or detention. We come from a
peaceful, respectful tradition that values humility and faith. Serigne Saliou is a product of that culture-someone whose life has been an example of kindness, faith, and service. That's why his current detention has left so many of us heartbroken and confused
As someone who has achieved professional and personal success here in the United States, I can confidently say that Serigne Saliou is not just a community figure—he is a community pillar. He has never been involved in wrongdoing, and his character and contributions speak for themselves.
Senegalese, especially the Murid, hold a special place in my heart. They saved my life by introducing me to Islam. I know firsthand many of these people who I love and know the values and morals they hold. Aside from character, it’s absolutely absurd and illegal to be charged with kidnapping or have legal status challenged because you won’t stop and let a passenger out in an unsafe spot all because they’re mad you don’t listen to music.
Je me nomme Mame Thierno Faye, sénégalais et résidant au Canada depuis 2019. J’ai connu Serigne Saliou au Sénégal, aux Maristes. On n’a habité dans le meme quartier pendant plus de 8ans.
Serigne Saliou Ndoye a toujours été une personne dévouée et impliquée dans les actions sociales de quartier et de sa communauté. Son sourire et la première chose qu’on voit chez lui quand on le croise montrant un accueil chaleureux. Il est très instruit, correct, respectueux et responsable. De loin apres mon voyage pour poursuivre mes etudes on a toujours eu d’excellentes relations et cesse de me donner des conseils d’ami et de grand frère. Et, je ne suis pas la seule personne qui pourrait témoigner cela. Depuis son séjour aux États Unis il a participé activement aux activités de développement de la communauté sénégalaise vivant aux États Unis. C’est une personne dévouée, ambitieuse et n’hésite pas à oublier sa propre personne pour le bien de l’autrui.
