| [MAGHAREBIA] A Mauritanian appellate court on Sunday (July 14th) released a Canadian jailed for attempting to attend an al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) training camp in Mali, AFP reported. Aaron Yoon, 25, was convicted last July and sentenced to a two-year prison term. Earlier media reports suggested that Yoon was friends with two Canadian terrorists killed by Algerian security forces during the siege at the In Anemas gas complex last January. |
