Alleged Leader Freed on Bail

Jamaal Abdul Qayuum, father to four, walked out of the Brampton Court under bail conditions yesterday. Having spent the past 17 months in prison, mostly solitary confinement, the alleged 'leader' Jamaal walked out of the Brampton court - the same that was sensationalized with snipers and gunmen last year, with minimal security.

The crown withdrew its charges of 'plotting to bomb' against Jamal. It is to be noted that during the current times of marked injustices, hate crimes and persecution against muslims, charges as serious as that of 'plotting bombs' are serious mistakes and should be carefully looked into before being levied - especially if it involves serious physical and mental torture of the detainees in strict conditions.
