(CBC) Conservative MPs are calling on the House public safety committee to investigate the case of a father and son in Toronto charged with multiple terrorism-related offences.
Ahmed Fouad Mostafa Eldidi, 62, and his son Mostafa Eldidi, 26, were arrested last month and face a total of nine charges. They face one count each of conspiracy to commit murder for the benefit or at the direction of a terrorist group — namely ISIS, a Sunni Muslim militant organization.
Conservative House leader Andrew Scheer told reporters Tuesday his party has questions about the immigration screening process for both men.
“For Canadians to have confidence in our immigration system, we need to know that in every case, in every application, the due diligence and proper screening is done. Clearly that was not done in this situation and lives were almost lost,” he said.
