The Islamic Cultural Institute in Milan, Italy was shut down by Italian authorities, based on an association with terrorism according to counter-terror analysts at the Guantanamo Bay detention camps in Cuba.[1][2] However in 2008 it was functioning again. The current president of the institute, as well as the associated mosque, is Abdel Hamid Shaari.[3]
