Two men were arrested in Canada on terrorism charges yesterday. The Canadian police said that Carlos Larmond, arrested at a airport in Quebec, was leaving to "participate in terrorist activities abroad". Ashton Larmond was also arrested at an Ottowa airport and was charged for facilitating terrorist activity. No more details of the case have been reported.
It's hard to tell if these guys were actually terrorists. They seem like they are related, so maybe they could be a terrorist duo team? Their arrests could have also been from paranoia due to the recent attacks in France. It's hard to tell right now but when more details come through it'll become clearer.
Did the report give any reasons as to why they were suspected of terrorism activity? It almost sounds like the police are arresting anyone and everyone who looks remotely suspicious because of the attacks in Paris.
ReplyDeleteThe report hasn't said anything yet. I think that the police are on edge because of the recent attacks an are profiling those who look suspicious.
DeleteIt would be great if there details about why they were arrested, or else it sounds like we need to arrest everybody that looks like a French terrorist. Wait don't they speak French in Quebec. They might have some solid evidence but still, it sounds weird. Like we talked about in class homegrown terrorists are becoming more of a threat.
