(Calgary Herald) A Canadian woman who returned to Canada from Iraq earlier this week will face a two-day hearing in March to determine if there are grounds she may pose a terrorism threat.
Lawyer Yoav Niv appeared in Calgary provincial court Friday to schedule the hearing, in which the crown will attempt to establish there are grounds to believe his client poses a threat to take part in terrorism activities.
Outside court, Niv said he will oppose the application for a Criminal Code peace bond which could impose restrictions on his client, including house arrest and electronic monitoring for up to 12 months.
Under a section of the code, a party may seek a judicial order to have a person sign an undertaking to abide by restrictions if a judge is satisfied there are reasonable grounds to fear that person may commit a terrorism offence.
