Terror suspect arrested in Quebec enroute to U.S. has no ties to Canada, court records show

A man arrested in Quebec on allegations that he was plotting an ISIS-inspired mass shooting targeting Jews in New York City had no ties to Canada apart from his student visa, according to court documents filed as police sought to arrest him and keep him in custody.These newly released documents were first filed on Sept. 4, the same day RCMP officers arrested Muhammad Shahzeb Khan. These documents show Canadian authorities feared they could not keep the 20-year-old suspect in custody if they pursued Canadian criminal terrorism charges against him but they believed they could detain him as part of a process to extradite him to the United States to face terrorism charges there at the request of American authorities.Mr. Khan, a Pakistani national who entered Canada last year on a student visa, and who was living near Toronto, was arrested two weeks ago in Ormstown, Que., a short drive from the U.S. border. He has been charged in the U.S. with one count of attempting to provide material support and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization.
