The RCMP have confirmed to have arrested two twin brothers from Ottawa and charged them with multiple terrorism-related offenses as one of them attempted to fly overseas and allegedly carry out terrorist activities.
The statement by RCMP revealed that 24-year-old twin brothers, Carlos Larmond and Ashton Carleton, were arrested on Friday. The press release added that both brothers were born on 21 Nov. 1990. Carlos Larmond was taken in custody from Montreal’s Pierre-Elliott Trudeau airport and faces charges including attempting to leave the country to participate in a terrorist activity abroad, as well as participating in the activity of a terrorist group. Whereas, Ashton Larmond was arrested in Ottawa and faces charges including facilitating a terrorist activity, participating in the activity of a terrorist group, and instructing to carry out an activity for a terrorist group. The press release by Assistant Commissioner, James Malizia, boasted that these arrests are in accordance to the national police force’s “ability to tackle a threat that is multifaceted and constantly evolving.” He stressed that “through collaborative efforts with our partners, we were able to prevent these individuals from leaving Canada to engage in terrorist activity overseas.”
In addition to that, the RCMP explained that the arrests were made by The Integrated National Security Enforcement Team (INSET) “following a national security criminal investigation.” Consequently, the statement went on to thank the Ottawa Police Service and the Ontario Provincial Police for their “significant role” in the case.
