(Global News) An Ontario man has been arrested on a terrorism peace bond after returning from Turkey, and has been released on a long list of conditions including that he not espouse extremism, Global News has learned.
Ikar Mao, 22, was arrested at his home in Guelph on Nov. 10 over fears that he would participate in the activities of a terrorist group, according to documents filed at the Brampton courthouse.
It’s the latest case of what the court documents describe as a “fear of terrorism offence.” Canadian counter-terrorism law allows the police to ask the courts to impose bail-like restrictions on the conduct of terrorism suspects without formally charging them with a crime.
