(CBC) A Canadian woman who was held in an ISIS detention camp in northeast Syria has arrived back in Canada to reunite with her five-year-old daughter — who was allowed to leave ahead of her last spring in the company of a former U.S. diplomat.
The woman left Canada in 2014. She said she never intended to join the Islamic State extremist group as it was trying to establish a caliphate across Syria and Iraq.
The 30-year-old woman was met by RCMP officers upon her arrival in Canada on Monday. She surrendered herself to them and agreed to sign an undertaking that imposes restrictions on her activities until the federal government can formally invoke a so-called “terrorism” peace bond. That bond hearing likely will take place in January.
