The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) arrested an 18-year-old man from the Saint-Laurent borough of Montreal on Thursday morning in connection with allegations of terrorism.
In a news release, the national police force said it had “reasonable grounds to suspect that an individual may be committing terrorism offences.”
Mohamed Amine Assal, 18, was arrested as part of a police operation to “disrupt Mr. Assal’s suspicious activities.” The police also wanted “a commitment from him to keep the peace.”
