(CBC) A Canadian woman who was held for two years at an ISIS detention camp in Syria is now under investigation for terrorism offences and war crimes. However, her lawyer has suggested RCMP officers are exploiting their powers by both monitoring and investigating the Calgary mother, according to court documents recently filed at the Calgary courthouse.
A publication ban protects the 30-year-old woman’s identity. CBC News will call her “S.A.,” as she was previously identified in Federal Court.
In late 2021, the woman was issued emergency travel documents and returned to Canada, landing in Calgary in late November to reunite with her five-year-old daughter, who eight months earlier had been released to the woman’s sister and American diplomat Peter Galbraith.
