CAIR said the US District Court for Alaska had granted its request for an emergency temporary order requiring guards to provide adequate meals in accordance with government health guidelines.”CAIR has reported an unprecedented spike in bigotry targeting American Muslims and members of other minority groups since the election of Donald Trump as president,” the Washington-based organisation said in a statement.Muslims are currently marking the holy month of Ramzan, fasting from dawn until sunset, which means going without food for around 18 hours in Anchorage.
