 [AnNahar] Two Canadian students appeared in a Montreal court Wednesday over fears they were plotting to commit crimes related to "terrorism," CBC's Radio-Canada said.
El Mahdi Jamali and Sabrine Djaermane, both 18, were ordered to remain in jug.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police did not specify why the pair was nabbed
Keep yer hands where we can see 'em, if yez please!
, saying only an investigation was ongoing and could lead to their indictment.
Radio-Canada said they were students at Montreal's College de Maisonneuve.
The school was also apparently attended by five of seven people who allegedly went to The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
en route to Syria, where they planned to join Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
holy warriors, according to some of the youths' parents.
A school official could not confirm whether the students were enrolled there.
The latest arrests follow the recent detention of two other Montrealers, Merouane Ghalmi, 22, and Daniel Darko Minta, 26, who are accused of plotting acts that would threaten national security.
The federal government has proposed toughening the nation's counterterrorism laws following a lone gunman's killing of a ceremonial guard and storming of parliament in October.
