(CBC) Police have arrested two Canadian women and charged one with terrorism-related offences after the federal government repatriated them from a detention camp in Syria for ISIS fighters’ family members.
The RCMP said it arrested Oumaima Chouay on terrorism charges Tuesday night at the Montréal-Trudeau airport upon her arrival in Canada.
Canadian Kimberly Polman was arrested after arriving in Montreal Wednesday morning and authorities are seeking a peace bond, said her lawyer.
Two children were also repatriated from a detention camp in northeast Syria during this latest Canadian operation, Global Affairs Canada confirmed.
The RCMP said Chouay, 27, has been under investigation since 2014 by the Integrated National Security Enforcement Team (INSET).
