RCMP in Manitoba have laid terrorism-related charges against two Canadian men police say planned to participate as insurgents in the war in Afghanistan.
Police allege the two men travelled to Pakistan for terrorist training in firearms, scouting, guerilla warfare and explosives.
Ferid Ahmed Iman, who is 30, is charged with instructing to carry out terrorism activities and conspiracy to participate in the activity of a terrorist group.
Maiwand Yar, who is 27, is being sought on charges of conspiracy to participate in the activity of a terrorist group and participation in the activity of a terrorist group.
Police say the men, who were both post-secondary students, travelled to Pakistan in 2007 on tourist visas, but did not use the return portion of their tickets.
RCMP Assistant Commissioner Bill Robinson said it’s not known where they now are.
They train in Pakistan and murder all over the world. Pakistan will need to be dealt with sooner or later and giving the ISI money to fund Madrasas who train extremists from very young.
Sooner or later, the keg will explode. Why wait until spring? Deal with it now.
