Synopsis
Alex is joined by Tom Quiggin, former military intelligence officer, RCMP, and court appointed expert on Jihadist terrorism in both Federal and criminal courts of Canada. A high-profile Canadian member of the so-called Islamic State has been caught while attempting to return to Canada.Muhammad Ali, 28, who left Toronto in 2014 to join ISIS, was captured by Kurdish forces as he tried to flee from Syria to Turkey. However, with the RCMP struggling to bring charges against Canadians who have taken part in overseas terror groups, there is no guarantee Ali would face arrest upon his return.
