Court Chief Judge RobertColombo rejected Mo-hammad Huda’s lawsuit– and an appeal -- filedagainst the school dis-trict after the board de-termined his seat wasvacant because Hudawas not truly a residentof the city.That revelation came

about following a reportby The Review over a yearago detailing evidencethat Huda actually livedwith his wife in Warren.

The school districtacted on that report andhired a private investiga-tor, a former Hamtramckpolice officer, to dig fur-

or middle of the day anda number of items weretaken.“It’s been stressful,”

she said when asked howshe has coped, addingthat it comes at a timewhen she is “reallybroke.”Like many other new

residents, she has beenchased out of increasinglywealthier and more desir-able areas of Detroit thatare experiencing hugerental increases.In her case, she came

from West Village whereshe lived for the past twoyears.Now that she has been

experienced a break-in,she is seriously thinkingof moving out of Ham-tramck.The break-in, she said,

“is really the cherry ontop of a lot of otherthings.”She is not alone in this

experience.In recent weeks resi-

dents have becomealarmed at the crime ratehappening on the streetsand in neighborhoods.Social media has been

abuzz lately of tales ofbreak-ins and thefts, as-saults and street rob-beries.City and public safety

officials acknowledgethere is a crime spreehappening, but say it’s atypical uptick when theweather turns hot andmore people are out onthe street at all times ofthe day and night.Hamtramck Police Chief

Anne Moise originallyposted a response to thecrime wave on MayorKaren Majewski’s Face-book page. The Reviewasked the chief if wecould reprint it, and sheagreed."Our detectives and of-

ficers are working hard toidentify person(s) respon-sible for the recent rashof break-ins. We are work-ing with the Detroit PoliceDepartment, who are ex-periencing them as well.We have been sharing in-formation to get theseparties identified andenough evidence to getthem charged by theWayne County Prosecu-tors Office. This is themost difficult part of theprocess. “I understand the resi-

dents’ concerns andfears. It is a very unset-tling feeling to know thatsomeone has been insideyour home taking itemsthat you worked hard toget. It is important to re-

mind people to call thepolice if they see some-thing suspicious, to reporttheir crimes and to takeproper precautions toavoid victimization. Lockdoors and windows, don'tleave your belongings outor in your vehicle. Crimeis always on the rise inthe summer and it is hap-pening all over the area.”While there were many

victims in recent weeks,there have been successstories for investigators.“I am glad to report that

we did arrest a suspectthat has reportedly beenstealing catalytic convert-ers, which is a huge prob-lem all over MetroDetroit,” Moise said.Not only is crime on the

rise, but there has alsobeen an increase in re-ports of car crashes andhit-and-runs. In somecases kids have been hit.“We have a lot of chil-

dren playing in the neigh-borhoods and peopleneed to slow down. Theservice drive is a particu-lar hot spot as peoplecome off the freeway orheaded to the freeway,”Moise said. “Most aredriving in an excess of 40-45 miles per hour andthere are several homesin that area with children.

"It is important for driv-ers to slow down and beaware of children thatmay suddenly run out intothe street. It is also im-portant for parents andcaregivers to remind chil-dren not to play or runout into the street."Moise said that if you

see anything suspiciousto immediately call thePolice Department at 911– not matter how insignif-icant is may seem.

parish remains at Mc-Dougall and Commorstreets). Migration to Ham-

tramck by families origi-nating in the Middle Eastand South Asia wasbarely a trickle at thattime. The Albanian com-munity was firmly estab-lished. Bosnian refugeescame later, in the latterhalf of the '90s.In late summer of

1992, I saw a poster foran art show called Gen-erators & Transmis-sions. On the posterwere a few dozen

names, most of themnew to me. Some werestudents at what wasthen called the Centerfor Creative Studies orCCS (now the College forCreative Studies), WayneState and Cranbrook.Other names were fac-ulty members at thoseinstitutions. Anotherartist, Dmytro Szylak,was introduced via thatposter. Aside from the exhibi-

tion's curators — sculp-tor (and later, athree-term mayor) GaryZych and his Cranbrook

mentor Michael Hall --it's likely that only a fewin the community wereaware of the significanceof the colorful work ofhomemade genius risingfrom two garages in thealley behind the 12000block of Klinger St.Zych, Hall and the first

wave of artists thatbegan moving to Ham-tramck 25 years agowere early champions ofSzylak and his whirligigart, made from wood andmetal, held together bynails and wire, punctu-ated by pictures of time-less western pop cultureidols (Elvis) and obscuremid-20th century East-ern European politicalphrases. Besides allthat, it was just fun tohang out there withDmytro, who would oftencome out to chat withfans of his piece, sometraveling from as faraway as Germany orJapan to see it. When Szylak died last

May, a group of us got to-gether to make sure hiswork lived on. We sup-ported his heir, a step-son, in his legal fight tokeep the houses. Wehelped a local nonprofit,Hatch Art, purchase theproperties and begin afundraising campaign torenovate the houses andpreserve the installationand Szylak's legacy.Tonight there is a char-

ity dinner event at Hatch

Art, 3456 Evaline St. tosupport these efforts.It's $50 and runs 6-10p.m. All of the moneyfrom the dinner will gotowards a Patronicity on-line effort to raise$50,000 for improve-ments at the Disneylandproperties. If it is raised by Aug.

20, the state will matchthat $50,000 for a totalcontribution of$100,000. That's somedecent coin, and will goa long way in redevelop-ing the properties andestablishing an artistresidency program. If youcan't make the dinnertonight, there will be an-other one at the Ham-tramck HistoricalMuseum on Aug. 11 andmore events the lastweek of the fundraisingcampaign.

of evidence:• Huda had changed

his address from Ham-tramck to Warren andback again several timessince 2011.• On his 2014 candi-

date application to runfor school board heclaimed to live on Flem-ing while at the sametime claiming a 100-per-cent Homestead tax ex-emption at a house onOmar in Warren.• On that same appli-

cation, called an affidavit,he said he had been aresident of Wayne Countyfor nine years, which con-tradicted his previousmoves to Warren, whichis in Macomb County.

• Huda establishedthree organizations thatbore his Warren addressas their headquarters.• While claiming to live

at 11813 Fleming, thecity’s Water Departmentsent a letter to that ad-dress saying there was aproblem with the watermeter and they neededto look at it. Huda did notrespond to that letter,and subsequently the cityshut off water service.• Huda is married and

has children. Adamczyksaid there is no courtrecord of a divorce orseparation.• The school district

also sent a package ofmaterial to Huda at the

Fleming house but thedistrict received noticethat it was not picked up.The package sat on theporch of the house for 16days.• Neighbors at the

Fleming address saidthey knew of Huda be-cause he picked up mailthere, but they said hedid not live there.• Adamczyk also spoke

with neighbors who livenear the Warren housewho said Huda livedthere with his wife andkids for the past 18months.• Adamczyk went to the

Warren house where heencountered RuhulMumen, who identifiedhimself as Huda’s

brother and his attorney.• Mumen said Huda

was not there, but duringthat conversation Hudadrove by but did not stop.• Mumen asked to

meet Adamczyk alongwith Huda, but Adamczyksaid that despite threeattempts to schedule ameeting he never re-ceived a call back fromMumen.• During that visit in

Warren Mumen calledWarren police and admit-ted Huda lives in Warren.

Judge Colombo agreedwith the evidence pre-sented in court.Huda filed an initial law-

suit that charged the dis-trict with violating his civilrights and sought finan-

cial damages.After that lawsuit was

rejected he filed anotherlawsuit to simply win hisseat back without askingfor financial damages.Judge Colombo also

ruled against that claim. According to a Detroit

Free Press story thisweek, the judge saidHuda “clearly” commit-ted perjury when hesigned an affidavit for hiscandidacy.Hamtramck Schools

Superintendent TomNiczay said the districtwill seek legal fees fromHuda.At press time it was un-

clear if the district wouldseek criminal prosecu-tion against Huda for per-

jury.Niczay had only this

comment:“Since Chief Wayne

County Circuit JudgeRobert Colombo statedon the record that Mo-hammad Huda ‘clearlycommitted perjury’ thereis really nothing more tosay other than the Dis-trict is planning to goafter Mr. Huda for dam-ages and attorney fees.”Huda’s seat was de-

clared vacant last Febru-ary. The board appointedSalah Hadwan to fill theposition until the Novem-ber General Election.Hadwan filed to run forthe remainder of Huda’sterm, which is four years.

Judge admonishes ex-school boardmember forperjury in lawsuit Continued from front page

By Charles SercombeJust a few weeks be-

fore former SchoolBoardmember Moham-mad Huda’s appeal inWayne County CircuitCourt to win back hisseat was heard, a wit-ness in the case saysshe was asked to changeher statement.In an exclusive inter-

view with The Review, El-nora Canady, who livestwo doors down from thehouse that Huda claimshe lives in, said thatHuda and an unidentifiedman came to her housetwice bearing food.In the first visit in early

July the two mistook herdaughter, Tara Cornwell,for her and gave herfood. After they found outshe was not Canady, theycame back a few dayslater, again with a tray of

Middle Eastern food.This time, though, they

presented Canady with awritten statement sayingshe was aware that Hudahad lived in the house hehad claimed to be a resi-dent in since 2014.She was asked to sign

it, but Canady refused,saying it was false.

“He (Huda) asked me ifI remembered in 2014he came over and said‘Hello.’”“I told him that was not

in 2014, it was in 2016,”Canady said.Had Canady signed

that statement, shewould have contradictedwhat she said in a depo-

sition a few months agoabout her knowledge ofwhether Huda lived onFleming. At that time shesaid no one had been liv-ing in the house Hudaclaimed to live, and ithad been vacant forsome time.That testimony was

critical in proving theschool district’s claimthat Huda was not quali-fied to be a school board-member because he didnot live in the city. Thedistrict offered proof thatHuda actually lived inWarren with his wife andchildren.The school board de-

clared Huda’s seat va-cant last February andappointed Salah Hadwanto fill his seat until theNovember General Elec-

In Our Opinion

We hear this moreand more each day:The city is filthy.Despite the efforts of

a summer workforceand countless volun-teers, this city has awidespread litteringproblem.Just as fast as some-

one cleans up loosetrash on our streets,more garbage comesalong moments later.It’s an endless cycle.We can all complain

about this until we’reblue in the face, butthose guilty of litteringand throwing trash outin the alleys aren’tlikely hearing it. But we have word

from City Manager Kat-rina Powell that a city-wide educationcampaign will soon

begin – starting withspreading the wordthrough churches andmosques.The other tool that

will be used -- or weshould say, stepped up-- is handing out codeviolation tickets.We have heard this

before, but we are will-ing to see how seriousthis administration isabout the problem.In the meantime, if

you have a neighborwho fails to place theirhousehold garbage intheir garbage can, andinstead piles it uploosely in the alley, trytalking to them.And when we say talk-

ing, we don’t meancoming on in an ag-gressive manner. Youdon’t need to start a

war with a neighbor(trust us, we’ve gonedown that rabbit hole).If that doesn’t work,
