At least 363 pilgrims were killed and hundreds wounded in the Jan. 12 deadly stampede during the devil-stoning ritual.
The U.S.-based rights group demanded an official apology from KFI-AM 640 host Bill Handel, who made fun of the pilgrims' deaths during a segment he called the "Annual Stampede Report."
CAIR says that Handel imitated the pilgrims screaming and then joked that Muslims should use a helicopter to monitor Hajj traffic, as is done in Los Angeles with the freeways.
The group quoted Handel as saying: "This is Mahmoud Nolan. Hajj in the Sky. There is an accident. ... Ali lost his sandal on the on-ramp to the Martin Luther King Jr. freeway."
"The deaths of hundreds of people engaged in religious observances is no laughing matter," Sabiha Khan, CAIR's spokeswoman, said in a statement.
"KFI needs to distance itself from Mr. Handel's unbelievable insensitivity by issuing a formal apology and a reprimand."
In March 2004, KFI issued an on-air apology after CAIR filed a complaint with the Federal Communications Commission following a skit that claimed Muslims have sex with animals, don't bathe and hate Jews.
CAIR Asks Radio Host to Apologize
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) asked for an apology from the host of a Los Angeles radio show for making fun of the Hajj stampede that killed hundreds of Muslims last month.
