A Muslim advocacy group is inviting FBI Director Robert Mueller to an open house at a controversial Minneapolis mosque.
The Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations made the public invitation on Tuesday to the dinner on Wednesday at the Abubakar As-Saddique Islamic Center.
The invitation comes a day after Muellar gave a speech in Washington saying a Minneapolis man may have become the first U.S. citizen to carry out a terrorist suicide bombing in October.
Mueller says the attack happened in northern Somalia, but the man apparently was "radicalized in his hometown in Minnesota."
Leaders of the mosque have repeatedly denied allegations that it is tied to the disappearances of young Somali men who may have left Minneapolis to fight in Somalia.
An FBI spokesman in Washington did not immediately return a telephone message.
