Canadian police today (February 3, 2015) arrested an Ottawa man they said was planning to aid Islamic State (IS) fighters and charged him with participation in the activity of a terrorist group, according to the Newsmax World website.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said in a statement that Awso Peshdary, 25, was also charged with facilitating the activity of a terrorist group.
Police have also filed charges in absentia against two other men they said had left Canada to fight with the Islamic State.
They added that there had never been any immediate threat to the Canadian public from those charged today.
