(Global News) A terrorism offender released from prison last year despite concerns he remained a “high risk to public safety” has been arrested again for allegedly breaching his probation.
RCMP counter-terrorism officers took Kevin Omar Mohamed back into custody at a job site last month after he was allegedly caught with a cellular phone, police said on Monday.
“I can confirm that the RCMP arrested Kevin Mohamed as a result of a breach of his probation,” said Sgt. Penny Hermann. “He was arrested on July 8, 2020, and was released shortly thereafter.”
The Public Prosecution Service of Canada said the breach stemmed from “the use of an unauthorized mobile phone with internet connectivity.”
