RCMP say Quebec Muslim man researched chemical weapons, planned attack for ISIS

[CBC] RCMP say 24-year-old intended to carry out attack on behalf of Islamic State

A 24-year-old Quebec City man has been charged with terrorism-related offences, according to federal police. The RCMP say Louay Angoud intended to carry out an attack on behalf of the Islamic State.

He is alleged to have communicated online with members of a terrorist group and gathered information to build a chemical weapon that could be used to poison Canadians.

His charges are the following:

  • Using or possessing property for terrorist purposes.

  • Commission of offence for terrorist group.

  • Participating in activity of a terrorist group.

  • Possession of weapon for dangerous purpose.

The investigation started in April, says RCMP Cpl. Martina Pillarova.

“There were no indications of an imminent attack," she said. “However, he had the knowledge of how to carry out the attack.”

When Angoud was arrested on Wednesday, he was in possession of a knife, she said.

CBC spoke with Angoud's landlord in Quebec City, Guillaume Ratté-Côté, who said he had never heard his tenant say anything violent. However, he notes Angoud had once told him that he celebrated the Sept. 11 attacks.

Angoud appeared at a Quebec City courthouse Thursday via video link from an RCMP station in Westmount. The Crown opposed his release.

He is scheduled to return to court on Sept. 28 to have the date for his bail hearing set.

Angoud does not have legal permission to be in Canada and he had no previous criminal record, according to the RCMP.
An illegal Moslem colonist snuck into Canada for the purpose of poisoning the good Canadians who generously did not send him back to whence he came. A sadly common tale.
MTLblog adds:
He appeared in a Quebec City courtroom on Thursday by videoconference from Montreal.

The Crown opposed his release, and he will remain detained until his next court date on Monday.

A fourth charge of carrying a weapon with dangerous intent was dropped.

The charges he faces carry prison sentences ranging from 10 years to life.
More details from Montreal City News:
Mounties say at the time of Angoud’s arrest, he did not possess the materials needed to carry out the alleged plan.

“He did not have any products or anything else he could have used, so there was no imminent danger,” said RCMP Cpl. Martina Pillarova.
MSN points out:
According to a court document, the offenses occurred between June 4 and Sept. 22, 2026, in Quebec, Montreal, Laval, Longueuil and elsewhere in the province.
