Bell roused suspicions at the Islamic Center in Jacksonville last year for discussions he was having with teens who attended the center, including talks about jihad and the civil war in Syria, said Parvez Ahmed, the board secretary at the Northeast Florida center.
Ahmed said parents came to the leadership with concerns, and center attorneys contacted the FBI. Federal agents subsequently visited the center several times to interview administrators and others.
"We felt he was having conversations with younger kids that concerned us … about violence and things like that," Ahmed said.
