Canadian authorities remand the Algerian Harkat in custody again
 The Canadian authorities have once again arrested the Algerian, Mohammed Harkat, who was released on parole and remanded in custody before appearing in Canadian Supreme Court in a period not exceeding 47 hours.According to Harkat's lawyers, the Canadian authorities blamed this one for not housing his stepmother permanently, which is one of the conditions set for his liberation. But the man, his lawyers added, has never lived alone since his Canadian wife is sharing the same roof with her husband and was there when Harkat was busted. The Canadian authorities accused Mohammed Harkat of being part of an "Al Qaeda" dormant cell and was arrested in 2002 under a security warrant which allows the detention of foreigners without appearing in court. Four years after, Mohammed Harkat was released on parole in 2006 under strict conditions including the wearing of bracelet to track him down by security services as well as being under the supervision of his Canadian wife or one of her relatives. The Canadian federal court is set to pronounce on the case of Mohammed Harkat these coming days. Posted by: Fred 2008-01-31 |
