Canada: Toronto 18 terrorist freed after being sentenced to time already served

Jahmaal James pleaded guilty on Friday to having gone to Pakistan to obtain paramilitary training for the benefit of the so-called Toronto 18 and was to be set free after being sentenced to time served.

The now 26-year-old admitted in a Brampton court that he was part of a terrorist group that intended to cause violent jihad.

After entering his plea of guilt, the Scarborough man, who has been in pre-trial custody since June 2006, was sentenced by Justice Bruce Durno to seven years and credited with time served.

As part of a joint submission, the judge imposed a three-year probation period, a lifetime weapons prohibition and ordered James to provide a DNA sample.

James, who converted from Christianity to Islam, chose not to address the near-empty court.

      At least, he is going to be controlled after being obliged to give his DNA… Now, we’ll have to wait to see whether that control is going to be effective or not.

      Thanks for stopping by and welcome again!!
