CONCEPTION BAY SOUTH, N.L. --
Plans for a much-needed mosque near St. John's, N.L., have come to light through an act of vandalism at the work site.
Safwan Choudhry of Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at Canada says local members of his organization discovered smashed windows, shattered light bulbs and a kicked-in fireplace in a building in Conception Bay South on Thursday.
He said in an interview Tuesday that the group had just begun work on the building to convert it into a mosque and had not yet publicly announced the project, and there were no signs indicating what was planned.
