Canada court sentences 'Toronto 18' terrorism conspirators

By Bernard Hibbitts (editor) and University of Pittsburgh School of Law students.

ADVERTISEMENTS
[JURIST] A judge of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice Monday sentenced two men previously convicted in connection with the failed "Toronto 18" terrorist plot. Alleged plot leader Zakaria Amara was sentenced to life in prison, while Saad Gaya was sentenced to a 12-year prison term. Amara and Gaya were two of 18 men arrested in 2006 in connection with a plan to destroy the Toronto Stock Exchange, an Ontario military base and offices of the Canadian spy agency. Alleged co-conspirator Shareef Abdelhaleem meanwhile pleaded not guilty to terrorism charges Monday. Abdelhaleem was the first adult to be tried among the "Toronto 18" originally arrested and charged under Section 83 of the Anti-Terrorism Act, Canada's post-9/11 legislation. Five more members of the group face trial in March.
