Yemeni terror suspect placed under house arrest at Toronto mosque

A Yemeni arrested as he was allegedly trying to leave Canada to join a Middle East terrorist group has been released on bail to live under house arrest at a Toronto mosque.

A copy of an Ontario judge’s release order obtained by Global News shows Husam Taha Ali Al-Sewaiee was ordered to “reside at the mosque” in Toronto’s North York district.

He is not allowed to leave the mosque except when accompanied, and must also wear an ankle monitor, surrender his travel documents and stay 300 metres away from airports and border crossings.

The person who posted the $1,000 bond for Al-Sewaiee’s release gave a phone number that matches that of the same mosque. Their relationship, if any, was not explained.
