And then there were eight
There are now eight persons of interest (video at the link) connected to Project Samossa, a Canadian security services investigation into an alleged al Qaeda terror cell centred in Ottawa (hat tip to Blazing Cat Fur, who is doing God's work).
As to the details, salt to taste.
Michel Juneau-Katsuya, a former senior CSIS counter-terrorism agent and one-time RCMP security service officer, said a source close to the investigation has told him at least one suspect, the alleged ringleader, used Ottawa Public Library computers to communicate with other members of the Ottawa-based cell.
"He was trying to avoid detection and surveillance," Juneau-Katsuya said. "They wanted to hit Parliament Hill and there was discussion of going against public transportation in Montreal . . . (and) they were not excluding the possibility to some major (Ottawa transit) hubs."
