Charges stayed against teen in Ontario bomb plot case

16-year-old male from Mississauga has been charged of terrorist act. He is the youngest of the so-called Toronto 18. He was accused of planning a plot to attack victims in Ontario. The juvenile was also accused of receiving training to become a terrorist, being a part of a terrorist group, and participating in a terrorist group for carrying out terrorism acts. The Crown withdrew charges, but they can be reactivated within a year if there is evidence and/or proof. The attorney decision on whether or not the suspect was guilty or innocent cannot be revealed to the public. The Youth Criminal Justice Act protects suspects that are under 18 years old. For that reason, they have protected the accused suspect. Michael Block, the suspect’s lawyer, said that his client had not done anything wrong. “He had simply an appetite to discover more about the world’s religions,” said Block. “However, he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.”. Two of the suspects had charges reduced. None could be identified, as the Youth Criminal Justice Act kept all profiles in secrecy, for the safety of the juveniles under 18 years old. The client’s family was relieved and said to have returned to their normal lives and they were able to return to their normal lives.
