Quebec RCMP say Canadian woman returning from Syria faces terrorism charges | National Newswatch:
MONTREAL — A Quebec woman who allegedly travelled to Syria to join the Islamic State terrorist group has been repatriated from Syria and will face terrorism charges, the RCMP said Wednesday.
Insp. David Beaudoin says the arrest is the culmination of that investigation after Chouay left Canada in 2014. The repatriation was organized by the Canadian government. Beaudoin said the children have been an area of concern for investigators since the beginning of the probe. Beaudoin said he could not comment on the case of Kimberly Polman, a British Columbia woman who was repatriated with Chouay, referring questions to federal authorities in that province.
Global Affairs Canada said in a statement that four Canadians — two women and two children — were transferred from the camp in northeastern Syria. The department thanked the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria for"its co-operation and recognizes its efforts in providing care for the detained individuals under an extremely difficult security situation and adverse circumstances.
