(Global News) Two Ottawa teens allegedly plotted to bomb a pro-Israel rally on Parliament Hill before they were arrested by the RCMP, according to documents obtained by Global News.
The boys, both minors, were arrested in December and February over what police called a terrorist plot against the Ottawa Jewish community.
Specifics of their plan were not disclosed at that time, but newly released allegations filed in court detail their suspected target.
“They are alleged to have formed a plan last fall to violently attack Jewish persons in Ottawa, possibly through the detonation of an explosive device at a pro-Israel rally,” the Department of Justice wrote.
No further details were provided, but one of the accused is charged with possession of acetone, oxidizer and metal ball bearings.
