PLAINFIELD – A U.S. Senate committee found no evidence that the Islamic Society of North America, based in Indiana, helped to finance terrorism, officials said.

The Senate Finance Committee sought the tax records of two dozen Muslim groups in December 2003.

Committee leaders said they were looking at the “crucial role that charities and foundations play in terror financing.”"
