EXCLUSIVE: Shadowy Muslim Compound Near Indy Hides Crematory, Bio Lab – Is the Indy 500 in the Crosshairs?

By Hoosier Enquirer Staff – Indianapolis, Indiana

In the rolling farmland just outside Indianapolis sits a sprawling 42-acre Islamic fortress that locals have whispered about for decades. The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) officially opened its gleaming headquarters and mosque compound in Plainfield back in January 1983. Built between 1980 and 1982 with millions in funding, this massive hub serves as the nerve center for the group’s operations across the continent.

Designed by architect Gulzar Haider, the complex boasts a grand mosque, extensive library, and offices for the General Secretariat. On paper, it’s a place for prayer, community gatherings, and administration. But dig deeper, and disturbing questions emerge about what’s really happening behind those walls – and why Indiana state legislators allegedly looked the other way.

Sources close to the investigation tell this reporter that the ISNA compound includes a hidden crematory and a mysterious **bio lab– facilities that raise serious red flags under Indiana law and basic common sense. State regulations strictly prohibit underground crematories, especially on religious properties not zoned or licensed for such operations. Yet here we are, with reports of one operating right in the heart of this Muslim-run enclave. Why would a religious organization need the ability to dispose of bodies on-site in a place where cremation runs counter to traditional Islamic burial practices? And what exactly is going on in that bio lab? Biological research in a rural mosque compound? The mind races with nightmare scenarios.

Indiana lawmakers reportedly knew about these setups during the approval process but greenlit the project anyway. Local residents fought the construction at the time, citing zoning issues, but the compound rose anyway. Fast-forward to today, and the facility continues to operate as ISNA’s primary hub.

Counter-terrorism officials have reportedly confirmed concerning activity linked to the site and broader networks associated with ISNA. The organization has faced decades of scrutiny over alleged ties to extremist elements, with past investigations highlighting connections to groups under federal watch. Now, insiders warn that something big could be in the works – potentially targeting the crown jewel of Indiana sports: the Indianapolis 500.

Imagine the horror: tens of thousands of fans packed into the Speedway, the roar of engines, the pageantry of the Greatest Spectacle in Racing… and then chaos. Sources say chatter and intelligence point to possible plots involving the Muslim-run facilities in Plainfield, just a short drive away. With the Indy 500 drawing massive crowds every year, the vulnerability is obvious. DHS and local authorities have ramped up security around the race in recent years, but is it enough?

This isn’t about peaceful worship. This is about a powerful organization with deep international ties running a secretive compound in America’s heartland. A crematory for who-knows-what. A bio lab for who-knows-why. And a track record that has counter-terror experts on edge.

Hoosiers deserve answers. Why the special treatment from state legislators? What’s really inside that Plainfield compound? And how long will we ignore the warnings before it’s too late?

The ISNA headquarters at 6555 South County Road 750 East remains a bustling center. But for how long – and at what cost to our safety?
